§ 32. Mr. FranksTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what plans he has to review the grant system to upland-lowland farmers for waste handling facilities.
§ Mr. MacGregorAs I announced on 28 November a major feature of the new capital grant scheme that I hope to introduce in February will be improved aid for waste storage, treatment and disposal. We have made provision of up to £50 million over the next three years to allow for improved lowland grant rates and for the extension of eligibility to include fixed disposal piping and safety fencing.
