HC Deb 02 July 1992 vol 210 cc704-5W
Mr. Stevenson

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what steps are being taken to remove discimination for tenant farmers in the sale or transfer of milk quotas.

Mr. Curry

The current EC negotiations on the consolidation and simplification of the milk quota regulations will include consideration of landlord/tenant issues in relation to quota transfers. We will seek to ensure that any provisions agreed take account of the interests of all parties concerned, including tenants.
