HC Deb 22 April 1999 vol 329 cc673-4W
20. Mr. Brady

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will make a statement about the regulatory costs incurred by lowland farmers in England. [80363]

Costs incurred by individual farms will vary. Our aim is to keep regulatory costs to the minimum necessary to safeguard public, plant and animal health, the environment and the public funds.
