§ Mr. Gouldasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will publish in the Official Report any revision to table 28 of the annual review White Paper, Cmnd. 9423, together with a separate figure for wheat in the first part of the table; and if he will break down the figures to show the amount spent in each country in the United Kingdom.
§ Mr. MacGregorThe final outturn for 1984–85 is not yet available, but this information, together with forecast 41W expenditure for 1985–86, will be published towards the end of the year. Separate information about expenditure on wheat is not, however, readily available. Details of expenditure by the individual Agricultural Departments are contained in the annual Supply Estimates and appropriation accounts for MAFF, DAFS and the Welsh Office. The Intervention Board for Agricultural Produce operates on a United Kingdom basis, and for the majority of its expenditure it is not possible to break down the figures in table 28 of Cmnd. 9423 to show the amount spent in each country in the United Kingdom.
