§ Miss Quennellasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what steps he is taking to relieve British dairy farmers from the effects of EEC Regulation No. 749/73, whereby increases to United Kingdom producers are limited to 1.6p per gallon per year.
§ Mr. Anthony StodartThe question of what action should be taken to assist dairy farmers will be considered at the annual review and I cannot anticipate the results of that review or the determinations to be made thereafter. The calculations which fall to be made under Regulation 749/73 will shortly be discussed with the Commission of the EEC.
