HC Deb 24 March 1965 vol 709 c86W
60. Mr. Jopling

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food how soon he will permit beef to be produced from bulls which also qualify for the calf and fatstock subsidies.

Mr. Hoy

Commercial trials to compare production and marketing results between groups of bulls and steers are nearing completion. We shall have to study the results before deciding whether any extension of the calf subsidy or fat-stock guarantee arrangements to bulls is justified.
