HC Deb 19 March 1987 vol 112 c605W
36. Mr. Nicholas Baker

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he is satisfied with the way in which the sale of pigments is promoted in the United Kingdom.

Mr. Gummmer

It is important to promote sales of our pigmeat if we are to increase competitiveness in home and overseas markets. I have been impressed by the activities of, amongst others, the Meat and Livestock Commission. Food From Britain and the Bacon and Meat Manufacturers association. But there will be a constant need on the part of all concerned to review and improve their efforts to ensure continuing effectiveness.
