§ Mr. FabricantTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what have been the savings to the United Kingdom per capita as a result of reforms to the CAP during the past three years. [11238]
§ Mr. RookerThere have been no reforms to the CAP during the past three years which were designed to reduce budgetary expenditure. However, reforms to the rice regime in 1995 and to the fruit and vegetables regime in 1996 will progressively reduce price support, with consequent benefits for consumers.
