HC Deb 03 May 2000 vol 349 c107W
Mr. Yeo

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what proportion of the increase in the Redundant Building Grant Programme will be dedicated to farm-based enterprise. [120575]

Mr. Mullin

We have made clear to RDAs our intention that the whole of the £4 million increase should be targeted at farm enterprises, and to that end have removed for farmers the area-based limitation and widened the employment test.
