HC Deb 20 November 1978 vol 958 cc438-9W
Mr. Biffen

asked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection what discussions he has had with the Food and Drink Industries Council concerning the impact of the common agricultural policy upon British food prices; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Maclennan

Although my right hon. Friend has not had any recent discussions with the FDIC on the CAP, my Department keeps itself informed of the views of the food industry, as well as consumers and farmers on the subject.
