HC Deb 20 February 1980 vol 979 c238W
Mr. Michael Brown

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what proposals he has to prevent farmers from suffering severe cash flow problems.

Mr. Wiggin

My right hon. Friend has announced three devaluations of the green pound, two increases in the price of milk and a substantial increase in the hill livestock compensatory allowances. The benefits of these measures will be felt during the coming year.
