HC Deb 22 January 1973 vol 849 c30W
Mr. Deakins

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (1) what proposals he has made for dealing with compensatory amounts for pigmeat during the transitional period, and in particular during 1973–74;

(2) which Common Market countries supported Great Britain in the recent discussions on compensatory payments for pigmeat.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

The negotiations with our Community partners about this matter are confidential. I can, however, assure the hon. Member that my right hon. Friend is seeking arrangements which will be fair and reasonable for the United Kingdom interests concerned.
