HC Deb 13 May 1994 vol 243 c288W
Mr. Robert Banks

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what are the subsidies and support provided by each member country of the EC for the production of pigmeat.

Mr. Jack

Community-wide information on national support for pig producers in EC member states is not available from the European Commission. The European Commission is responsible for monitoring and approving nationals aids in all member states and has power to require the withdrawal or alteration of aids it considers to be incompatible with Community law, including the repayment of any aid paid illegally.
