HC Deb 31 January 1972 vol 830 cc29-30W
Mr. Brocklebank-Fowler

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will reconsider the amount of compensation to be payable by the Government in respect of dairy cows rejected under the brucellosis eradication scheme.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

We shall in the next few weeks be reviewing the experience of owners with heavily infected herds in the initial eradication areas. We recognise that these herds may present a special problem but we do not have it in mind to review the terms for herd owners in general.
