HC Deb 02 April 1953 vol 513 c170W
38. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Minister of Agriculture if he has considered representations made to him by the Borough of Leyton in respect of allotments on Wan-stead Flats; and what action he is taking to enable plot-holders to continue for a further two years.

Mr. Nugent

Yes. The council's power to hold requisitioned land for allotments derives from Defence Regulation 51, and I regret that I cannot yet say whether this Regulation will continue in force beyond 10th December next.
