HC Deb 23 November 1967 vol 754 c429W
Mr. Buchanan-Smith

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many milk producers have given up production in the past 12 months.

Mr. Ross

In the year ended 30th September, 1967, the number of registered milk producers within the area covered by the three Scottish milk marketing boards declined by 294. It is expected, however, that total milk production in the year to 31st March, 1968, will be somewhat higher than in the previous year.
