HC Deb 23 January 1978 vol 942 c441W
Mr. Farr

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will now state the corrected figure for the size of the sheep breeding flock at June 1977.

Mr. Bishop

The provisional outcome of the June 1977 census puts the United Kingdom sheep breeding flock at 13,697,000. This corrects the figure given to the hon. Member on 12th December 1977.—[Vol. 941, c.79.]
