§ Sir E. Graham-Littleasked the Minister of Agriculture whether he is aware that nurserymen are refused agricultural licences for their motor vehicles; and, in view of their importance as food producers, if he will consult the Ministry of Transport in the matter.
§ Mr. T. WilliamsI understand that under the relevant Statutes these licences can be granted to persons engaged in agriculture, and if a nurseryman's business is substantially concerned with food production he is regarded as being engaged in agriculture for the purpose of licensing.
