16. Mr. David Nicholson

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if she will make a statement on progress in relating agricultural support to environmental needs.

Mrs. Gillian Shephard

I am greatly expanding the range of environmental schemes available to farmers and have successfully pressed for environmental objectives to be integrated into other aspects of the common agricultural policy.
