§ Captain Conantasked the Minister of Agriculture whether, in connection with the Government's legislative proposals regarding the improvement of grassland and subsidy payments for quality beef, he has considered the possibility of extending the scope of the Ministry's improvement of livestock scheme in order to encourage smaller farmers, by the use of good class bulls, to produce better store stock?
§ Mr. W. S. MorrisonYes, Sir. I am glad to say that arrangements are being made for increased financial provision in connection with the scheme to which my hon. Friend refers, as a result of which I hope that it will be possible to place out, with suitable custodians, additional premium bulls of the beef and dual-purpose type.
