Mr. Madel

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what is the total amount of grain currently held in intervention in the United Kingdom; and what is his estimate of what it will be by 30 June 1988.

Mr. Donald Thompson

A note setting out the volume of intervention stocks in the United Kingdom on the latest available dates, which includes figures for cereals, is deposited in the Library of the House and is updated monthly. It is not possible to make a precise estimate of the intervention stocks of cereals at 30 June 1988 but they are likely to be substantially below their level at the start of this season.
