§ 75. Mr. G. Williamsasked the President of the Board of Trade what increase he anticipates being able to make in supplies of wood for making non-returnable cases for horticultural use.
§ Mr. J. EdwardsIn view of the great need of softwood for essential purposes, I am afraid that none can be licensed for flower boxes; but hardwood, which should be used, is not, in general, scarce. If the hon. Member is concerned about a shortage of any particular type of hardwood, or about any other kind of case needed in horticulture, I should be pleased to look into the matter.
