HC Deb 05 March 1985 vol 74 c477W
Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what approaches he has made to EEC institutions on behalf of Welsh dairy farmers to enable them to qualify for low-interest loans to help them over the present difficulties in the same way as has been open to German dairy farmers.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

None. Welsh dairy producers benefit from the capital grant support system under EC directive 72/159, whereas Germany operates a system of interest relief subsidies.
