HC Deb 26 October 1966 vol 734 cc175-6W
Dr. Gray

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether, prior to the Annual Price Review of next year, he will consider increasing the sugar beet subsidy.

Mr. Peart

The guaranteed price for sugar beet can be varied between two Annual Reviews only as a result of a Special Review. I am not aware of any existing circumstances that would make a Special Review desirable.
