§ Mr. Geraint Howellsasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food how much subsidy per pound of pig head is paid from Eurpean Community funds to Danish pig producers for exporting pigmeat to the United Kingdom; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MacGregorThe United Kingdom's positive monetary compensatory amount is currently larger than that for Denmark, so that at present a net levy is charged on all Danish pigmeat coming into the United Kingdom. The current value of the net levy is about 2.4p per lb on bacon sides.
