HC Deb 10 December 1946 vol 431 c209W
113. Major McCallum

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland the amount of the hill sheep subsidy referred to in the Hill Farming Act per breeding ewe and gimmer for the current year.

Mr. Westwood

I am not yet in a position to lay before Parliament an order prescribing the amount of subsidy payment for sheep kept on hill land in terms of the Hill Farming Act. This is a matter on which I wish to have discussions with the interests concerned, and a meeting has been arranged to take place shortly.
