HC Deb 03 November 1999 vol 337 c222W
Sir Peter Emery

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what action his Department is taking in EU institutions in respect of the funding of the school milk scheme. [96881]

Ms Quin

My right hon. Friend the Minister raised the question of the future of the EU school milk scheme at the Agriculture Council in June when he received a very positive response from other member states. We continue to lobby the Commission for the scheme to remain in place.
