HC Deb 27 October 1970 vol 805 c20W
Mr. Brewis

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether, in view of the high cost of feeding stuffs, he will now make the guaranteed prices for milk and beef dependent on a flexible feeding stuff formula as is the case with pigs.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

I do not consider that such a change is required. Action has been taken concerning the recent exceptional increase in the cost of feedingstuffs.

In general, changes in feed costs are a matter to be taken into account at Annual Reviews.
