HC Deb 22 May 1975 vol 892 c596W
24. Mr. Hawkins

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will make an estimate of the effect on agriculture of the implementation of the Community Land Bill; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Strang

The main purpose of the Community Land Bill is to provide for the community ownership of development land. It is not concerned with land which is to remain in use for agriculture and forestry.
