HC Deb 17 July 1959 vol 609 c72W
Mr. Harold Davies

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what has been paid out as subsidies to the pig industry in the last two years; and whether he will state the subsidies paid to the industry in the County of Stafford.

Mr. John Hare

The subsidies paid to the pig industry in the United Kingdom were approximately £36.8 million in 1957–58 and £21.1 million in 1958–59. I regret that it is impossible to state how much was paid to the pig industry in the county of Stafford.
