§ Mr. Ron DaviesTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales how much money has been spent in Wales on each different grant and subsidy scheme available to farmers and landowners in each year from 1990–91 to 1993–94; what are his forecasts for 1994–95; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. RedwoodThe expenditure on agricultural grant and subsidy schemes in the years 1990–91 to 1992–93 is published in the appropriation accounts for the relevant years, copies of which are in the Library of the House. The latest forecasts for 1993–94 are set out in the supply estimates 1993–94 for vote 1 schemes and, for vote 2 schemes, in the winter supplementary estimates. My plans for spending on agricultural grants and subsidies in Wales for 1994–95 will be set out in the 1994–95 supply estimates. The Government's priorities on and aims for agricultural spending will be set out in the Welsh Office departmental report to be laid before Parliament in March.
