§ Mr. Steenasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what assessment he makes of the impact of his policies, such as the new milk regime, on the social welfare and health of farmers and other members of the farming community; and if he will make a statement.

The effects will vary widely in degree and intensity. That is why special arrangements have been introduced to cater for those most likely to be disadvantaged.
