Rabbit Traps Sir T. Moore asked the Minister of Agriculture when he proposes to withdraw permission for the use of steel-toothed traps by agricultural war executive committees. Mr. Hudson I assume my hon. and gallant Friend refers to the Defence Regulation which enables War Agricultural Executive Committees to authorise the setting of spring traps in the open. I shall be prepared to withdraw the Regulation only when I am satisfied that the general food position justifies that step. Authority to use these traps is, of course, restricted to cases where no other means of rabbit destruction would be effective.
