HC Deb 15 April 1970 vol 799 cc237-8W
Sir J. Langford-Holt

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what is the comparison in terms of purchasing power between agricultural net incomes following the recent Price Review and in 1964; and how this compares with other forms of incomes.

Mr. Cledwyn Hughes
