§ Sir A. Bossomasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will extend the National Agricultural Advisory Service for the hot-water treatment of celery and broccoli seeds for one more year, since many growers of these products require another year to arrange for the hot-water treatment of their seed.
§ Mr. John HareNotice of discontinuance by the N.A.A.S. of the hot-water treatment of celery and broccoli seed was given in November, 1958, in order that growers might have adequate time to make their own arrangements for the 1960 season. However in view of the practical difficulties that have been represented to me I am prepared to arrange as a temporary measure for the N.A.A.S. to continue this treatment until the end of March, 1960.
