§ 54. Mr. G. Williamsasked the Minister of Agriculture why a nurseryman working two acres in 1939 is allowed to impart £25 per acre of nursery stock per annum, whereas a nurseryman working one acre is allowed to import £39 of nursery stock per annum.
§ Mr. T. WilliamsLicences will be granted to nurserymen to import nursery stocks during the forthcoming season up to the value of £35 where their 1939 acreage to nursery stocks did not exceed one acre, £25 per acre where the 1939 acreage did not exceed five acres and £20 per acre where the 1939 acreage was over five acres. These allowances have been fixed for consultation with the organisations representing the nursery trade and are considered adequate to meet the respective needs of the different classes of nurseries concerned.
