HC Deb 22 January 1963 vol 670 cc44-5W
Mr. Stonehouse

asked the Lord Privy Seal what price he has negotiated for wheat in the United Kingdom as a result of his discussions in Brussels; what increase this represents over the prices prevailing for Canadian and Australian wheat imports, respectively; and what estimate he made for the purpose of the negotiations of the increase in the price of bread that the new prices would represent.

Mr. Heath

These matters have yet to be settled.

Mr. Stonehouse

asked the Lord Privy Seal what estimate he made during the negotiations in Brussels of the impact on livestock producers in the United Kingdom of the increase in the price of wheat; and what representations he made to the Six for the protection of British livestock production.

Mr. Heath

The impact on livestock producers will depend on the precise arrangements for cereals which have still to be settled. We have had this point in mind in our discussions with the Community.
