HC Deb 16 March 1989 vol 149 c354W
Sir Richard Body

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will set out for each commodity the Government's objectives in the forthcoming EEC agricultural price negotiations; and if he will specify the Government's overall objectives in the negotiations.

Mr. MacGregor

I indicated the Government's reactions to the Commission's 1989 price proposals during the agriculture debate on 27 February. I am seeking to build on the reforms of the CAP achieved so far, to ensure compliance with budget discipline, and to obtain an equitable outcome for United Kingdom producers.
