HC Deb 24 November 1971 vol 826 cc397-8W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he is able to give the date when he expects to be able to announce the Exchequer costs involved in giving financial assistance to the farming interests for compensation for those whose businesses will be adversely effected if Great Britain enters the Common Market; and whether he will arrange to make the announcement in the House of Commons.

Mr. Prior

As I have explained on previous occasions, the special help under consideration is for horticulture. I have nothing at present to add to the answers given to the hon. Member on 28th July, 26th October and 16th November.—[Vol.822, c. 120; Vol. 823, c. 299; Vol. 826, c. 73.]
