HC Deb 07 May 1985 vol 78 c366W
Mr. Austin Mitchell

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will publish in the Official Report, the percentage ceiling on agricultural spending in the event of the relevant figures under the agreed formula being the same in 1985 as they were in 1984.

Mr. Ian Stewart

The method of calculating the financial guideline for agricultural expenditure, which will first apply fully for 1986 is set out in the Council conclusions on budget discipline which were placed in the Library of the House on 16 November 1984.
