HC Deb 27 January 1987 vol 109 c233W
Mr. Corbett

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will list the funding by project purpose and amount of agricultural research by his Department in each of the past five years.

Mr. Donald Thompson

A summary of my Department's research programme is published in an annual report on research and development. This outlines the broad allocation of expenditure and provides a commentary on selected aspects of the national programme. Copies of the five most recent reports are being placed in the Library of the House. I regret that a more detailed breakdown could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
