asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what proposals the Severn River Board has submitted to him, as a result of complaints received by the Strine Internal Drainage Board, to improve productive farmland in the areas of Lilleshall, Donnington, Newport, Crudgington and Longdon-on-Tern.
