Mr. Dafis

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what representations he has made at the EC Agriculture Council on the provision of financial encouragement for organic agriculture.

Mr. Curry

The UK pressed for the inclusion within the agri-environment programme of provisions for the payment of aid to organic farmers. Such provisions were adopted at the EC Agriculture Council in June.
