HC Deb 24 February 1958 vol 583 c12W
77. Mr. Willey

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food the present establishment of the inspectorate to enforce the provisions of the Agriculture (Safety, Health and Welfare) Act, 1956; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. John Hare

The present establishment in my Department is 73 posts, three of which are at headquarters. All of these posts have been filled with the exception of six outside London to which appointments are now being made. I believe this establishment to be adequate.
