§ Mr. Wingfield Digbyasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what is his estimate of the additional cost to farmers in a full year of the 50 per cent. rise in the duty on tractors and lorries.
§ Mr. John MackieI regret that estimates for tractors and lorries alone cannot be made from the existing statistics. The cost for all farm machines and vehicles is estimated at about £1.8 million in Great Britain.
