HC Deb 28 March 1961 vol 637 c109W
49. Mr. Hendry

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if, to encourage the production of store calves in Scotland, he will consider the re-introduction of the cow-heifer subsidy, to permit graded heifers to be calved at once.

Mr. Maclay

No. Cow-heifers were excluded from the scope of the fatstock guarantees at the Annual Review, 1957, and the main reason, which was given at the time in the Annual Review White Paper, still holds good.
