HC Deb 08 May 1981 vol 4 c153W
Mr. Wigley

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will publish a table showing the latest retail price of milk, on a comparable basis for each of the States in the European Economic Community.

Mr. Buchanan-Smith

A valid comparison cannot be made between the retail prices of milk in each of the States in the Community because of differences in fat content, type of packaging, method of heat treatment and mode of delivery to the consumer.
