HC Deb 16 November 1990 vol 180 c258W
Mr. Nicholas Bennett

To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what representations he has received about the payment of subsidies in respect of broken mouth sheep; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Curry

Payments to sheep producers under the sheep annual premium and hill livestock compensatory allowance schemes are confined to animals which comply with the detailed rules for those schemes. We do, from time to time, receive representations suggesting changes in those rules.
