HC Deb 04 December 1985 vol 88 c241W
Mr. Colin Shepherd

asked the Prime Minister if she is satisfied with the co-ordination between the Department of the Environment and the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food in respect of the identification of needs and derivation of priorities in respect of horticultural research.

The Prime Minister

Yes. There is close collaboration between the chief scientists of the two Departments in relation to research matters which are of mutual interest, but if my hon. Friend has any particular points in mind perhaps he would write to me.
