HC Deb 18 April 1972 vol 835 c43W
25. Mr. Strang

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if, following the consultations referred to in paragraph 21 of Command Paper No. 4928, he will publish a White Paper on how producer marketing organisations may best be developed.

Mr. Prior

Paragraph 21 of the Annual Review White Paper refers to recent or expected developments which will need study in view of their impact on agricultural marketing. It will be necessary to take account of all these developments and the views of the industry before seeking to reach conclusions on the future of producer marketing organisations or deciding on how such conclusions might be made available for consideration.
