HC Deb 16 January 1981 vol 996 c609W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales when he intends to increase the transport subsidy for the application of lime to grassland.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

The cost of providing lime for grassland improvement, including delivery charges, can qualify for capital grant under the agriculture and horticulture grant scheme or the agriculture and horticulture development scheme. There is no intention at the present time to increase such grant aid.
