HC Deb 08 February 1990 vol 166 c727W
17. Ms. Armstrong

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will make a statement on the arrangements for hill farmers under the sheepmeat regime.

Mr. Gummer

The reformed sheepmeat regime offers excellent opportunities to the United Kingdom sheep sector, including hill producers many of whom will also benefit from the increased HLCA payments I announced last week.
