HC Deb 24 June 1971 vol 819 c352W
Mr. Chichester-Clark

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will publish a table showing the average price of fresh cream, canned creams, skimmed milk powder, whole milk powder and condensed milk, respectively, at the latest convenient date in England and Wales, Northern Ireland, and, from information available from international sources, the Irish Republic, together with the minimum import price which will be established for these products on 1st July, 1971.

Mr. Prior

Comparisons are not possible between the internal prices of these commodities in the United Kingdom and those in the Irish Republic since there is little internal dealing in them in Ireland and no figures are published. The average prices in the United Kingdom are currently close to, or level with, the minimum import prices coming into force on 1st July, 1971.
