Member's Letter (Reply)

154.

Mr. Hogg
asked the Minister of Agriculture when a reply may be expected to the application by Mrs. L. B. Stopp forwarded to him by the hon. Member for the City of Oxford on 30th October, 1947.

Mr. G. Brown
I trust that the hon. Member has now received the reply to his letter, which was sent on 11th December last. The delay, for which I apologise, arose mainly from the necessity to make detailed local inquiries.
