HC Deb 23 November 1966 vol 736 c320W
Mr. Kenyon

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will expedite payment of the Hill Sheep Subsidy.

Mr. Peart

I have arranged for advance payment of hill sheep subsidy in England and Wales at the rates of 15s. per ewe in standard-rate flocks and 8s. per ewe in reduced-rate flocks. Application forms will shortly be sent out to farmers who received subsidy on the previous occasion, and we shall start paying as soon as possible after the completed forms have been returned.
