HC Deb 01 March 1948 vol 448 c11W
72. Mr. Lambert

asked the Minister of Supply what has been the result of his investigation into the shortage of manure forks in Devonshire; what steps he is taking to remedy it; and how long will it be before supplies are made available.

Mr. G. R. Strauss

It was found, on investigation, that there is a shortage of these forks in Devonshire. Additional supplies, which the trade have agreed to send to this area, should be available within a fortnight.
