HC Deb 21 March 1974 vol 870 c138W
Mr. Spicer

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what assistance is currently given by individual EEC countries to horticulturists who grow under glass.

Mr. Buchan

Aids for capital investment are available in all EEC countries in accordance with EEC Directive 72/159. Some member States, including the United Kingdom, give a rebate of excise duty on fuel oil and provide assistance for the encouragement of co-operation and the improvement of marketing.
