HC Deb 13 July 1981 vol 8 c258W
Mr. Teddy Taylor

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if the additional subsidies on milk for schools secured last week by Her Majesty's Government from the European Economic Community will be in addition to or included in the calculation of rebates from the European Economic Community under the Agreement of 30 May 1980.

Mr. Lawson

[pursuant to his reply, 8 July 1981]: The United Kingdom's receipts in respect of the school milk subsidies will be included in the calculations to be carried out by the Commission under the Community Budget agreement of 30 May 1980. The extent to which these subsidies represent additional net receipts after taking account of refunds payable under the agreement cannot, however, be assessed until the results of these calculations are known.
