HC Deb 07 December 1960 vol 631 c153W
81. Mr. Stodart

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland in how many instances his Department has disbursed subsidies and deficiency payments for calves and wheat, respectively, produced on the same farm, in the years 1957, 1958, and 1959.

Mr. Maclay

Precise information on this matter is not readily available. Farm accounts available to my Department, however, suggest that, of a total of approximately 5,000 annual recipients of wheat deficiency payment, about one half may draw calf subsidy as well.
