HC Deb 22 February 1951 vol 484 c214W
50. Mr. Gooch

asked the Minister of Agriculture if he has considered the Report of the Working Party on precautionary measures against toxic chemicals used in agriculture; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. T. Williams

I have not yet had time to consider the Working Party's Report fully, but I think that its recommendations are on the right lines. I am glad to say that the organisations concerned are also in general accord with the Report and have already agreed on safety measures to be recommended for the 1951 spraying season.
