§ Mr. Peter WalkerI have instructed my officials to give greater consideration to the marketing aspects of all their work to achieve this closer co-operation. ADAS in particular will in future be working more closely with the processing distributing industries. I will continue my own efforts, in meetings with the industry, to stress the need for each link in the food chain to work together.
