HC Deb 12 January 1993 vol 216 cc720-1W
Mr. Jonathan Evans

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will publish in full the autumn review of hill farming in less-favoured areas.

Mr. Curry

I have placed in the Library copies of the tables dealing with indices of hill farm income, market prices, hill livestock compensatory allowance expenditure and animal numbers which were discussed with the farming unions in the context of the autumn review, along with supplementary tables containing additional background information. Definition of the terms relating to income used in these tables are contained in appendix 3 to "Farm Incomes in the United Kingdom", 1992 edition, a copy of which is also in the Library of the House.
