HC Deb 06 July 1979 vol 969 cc751-2W
Mr. Denzil Davies

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what will be the effect on the United Kingdom's contribution to the EEC budget of the £83 million of benefit arising from the recent Luxembourg meeting, as set out in the answer dated 28 June to the right hon. Member for Llanelli.

Mr. Peter Walker

The benefit of £83 million has no additional effect on the United Kingdom's contribution to the EEC budget. The £49 million to which I referred in my reply to the right hon. Member on 28 June was my estimate of our total contribution to the EEC budget as a result of the CAP prices settlement, including the contribution towards our own benefits.
