HC Deb 01 February 1993 vol 218 c27W
13. Mr. Steen

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what grants are available for the planting of new vineyards in Wales; and if he will make a statement on Government policy regarding existing vineyards.

Sir Wyn Roberts

None. We are approaching the point where, under the terms of EC policy, planting for new vines will not be possible. That being so, there is no justification for the provision of Government assistance for new vineyards.
