HC Deb 25 June 1984 vol 62 c347W
Mr. Carlisle

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he expects any tonnage limit to be placed on the amount of breadmaking wheat offered for intervention during the coming season.

Mr. MacGregor

The Commission is expected to publish a regulation authorising intervention agencies to buy in a maximum of 3 million tonnes of common wheat of breadmaking quality at the start of the 1984–85 season. The monthly allocation is again 0.75 million tonnes each for August and September and 1.5 million tonnes for October.
