HC Deb 21 April 1983 vol 41 c178W
32. Mr. Cockeram

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will estimate the effect his decision not to make any changes in the current maximum retail or wholesal prices of liquid milk has on production and consumption.

Mr. Peter Walker

No. The effect can only be measured against the outcome of alternative decisions, but I believe that my decision should help to maintain current levels of both production and consumption.
