HC Deb 16 July 1970 vol 803 cc260-1W
Mr. Pardoe

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will order a special inquiry into methods of strengthening the producers' rôle and influence in marketing with a view to closing the gap between prices received by the farmer and those paid by the consumer.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

I see no need for such an inquiry at present.
