HC Deb 09 July 1980 vol 988 cc158-9W
Mr. Whitehead

asked the Lord Privy Seal in which countries Her Majesty's Government are giving aid to raise their food production; how much is being given; how much was given in each of the last five years; if any other countries were aided in these years; and, if so, which.

Mr. Neil Marten

Available statistics do not allow help for food production to be distinguished from other forms of assistance to agriculture and fisheries. The figures are detailed and complex and I shall write to the hon. Member as soon as possible.
