HC Deb 06 November 1969 vol 790 c171W
Mr. Godman Irvine

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what sum has been spent by his Department on the promotion and evaluation of British breeds of cattle.

Mr. John Mackie

My Department has always contributed, in a multitude of ways, to the promotion and evaluation of British breeds of cattle. I am afraid that it would be quite impossible to identify this as expenditure under separate heads.
