HC Deb 22 February 1967 vol 741 c301W
92. Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, in view of the official estimate given by those connected with the European Economic Community that if Great Britain joins the Community meat prices in this country will rise by 25 per cent. and food grains used for rearing livestock by 40 per cent., what inquiries he has now made into the basis on which such figures are calculated; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Peart

I am not aware of any official estimate of the kind referred to.
