HC Deb 11 April 1983 vol 40 cc338-9W
2. Mr. Delwyn Williams

asked the Secretary of State for Wales how much aid from the European Community went to Powys in the three-year period ended 31 December 1982; and what proportion of that aid took the form of grants to farmers.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

Only a proportion of EC aid can be identified on a county basis. As estimated £16.8 million has, however, been paid by the EC during the period in respect of agricultural schemes producing over £45 million which can be separately identified. In addition, there has been some £3 million in identifiable commitments from other EC aid sources.
