To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will list the recipients in the United Kingdom who have received grants from the European Community to the value of £8 million.

Mr. Curry

The United Kingdom has been awarded grants of £9.2 million by the European Commission under regulation 355/77 for 43 projects designed to improve the marketing and processing of agricultural and fisheries produce. A further £300,000 has been awarded for five projects to improve fishing port facilities.

Full details on these grants were issued in a press release on 6 July 1990. A copy was lodged in the Library of the House at that time and sent to Members directly concerned including my hon. Friend the Member for Holland with Boston (Sir R. Body).
