Mr. KynockTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a statement on the provisions in the Agriculture Act 1993 for the revocation of the north of Scotland milk marketing scheme, the Aberdeen and district milk marketing scheme and the Scottish milk marketing scheme.
§ Sir Hector MonroMy right hon. Friend has made an order under section 1(3) of the Agriculture Act 1993 to extend the deadline for the revocation of the three Scottish milk marketing schemes from 1 April 1994 to 1 January 1995. This is in recognition of the fact that a vesting day of 1 April 1994 is not achievable but does not preclude a vesting day earlier than 1 January 1995, provided the reorganisation schemes have been approved.
