asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will allow the Wretham Hall Estate Company to complete the cultivations and croppings of Fowlmere Farm in the Stanford battle training area, in view of the fact that 80 acres have already been ploughed and sufficient linseed obtained to crop 160 acres.

My hon. Friend will by now have received a letter on this matter. After full consultation with the Norfolk County Agricultural Executive Committee arrangements have been made which I hope will meet, as far as possible, the needs both of agriculture and military training.
