HC Deb 07 December 1984 vol 69 c294W
Mr. Loyden

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will list the amounts of foodstuffs currently being stored in the European Economic Community under the intervention policies of the common agricultural policy and the cost of storing those foodstuffs.

Mr. MacGregor

The latest information on Community intervention stocks and the amounts set aside to meet the costs of holding stocks in the 1984 Community budget are set out below. It must be emphasised that the budget figures cover the whole of 1984 and do not relate solely to the current level of stocks.
