HC Deb 01 July 1971 vol 820 c199W
Mr. Molyneaux

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will seek to negotiate parity in the level of subsidy both direct and indirect to the dead meat industry in the Irish Republic and in Northern Ireland in return for the inclusion of the Irish Republic within the import levy system of the United Kingdom for beef.

Mr. Prior

No. The relative positions of the meat industries in the Irish Republic and in Northern Ireland have been taken into account in the recent discussions with the Republic.
