HC Deb 11 November 1998 vol 319 c247W
Mr. Levitt

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will publish figures to show the typical relationship between prices paid by shoppers in supermarkets and prices paid to British producers for a range of meat and dairy products. [57293]

Mr. Rooker

The Ministry does not hold or publish figures showing the relationship between prices paid by shoppers in supermarkets and prices paid to British producers for meat and diary products. Figures for the farm to retail price spread for beef, lamb, pork and bacon are published by the Meat and Livestock Commission in "UK Market Survey—Monthly Supplement", copies of which are in the House Library.
