HC Deb 01 February 1993 vol 218 c73W
Mr. Pawsey

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what plans he has for his Department to use the service provided at commercial rates by the data centre for beef.

Mr. Soames

The recently adopted Community requirements for identification and subsidy controls do not require any great increase in the need for centralised computerised systems. The animal data centre would have to demonstrate that it was more efficient and cost effective than other interested organisations to obtain any work that was put out to tender.
