HC Deb 16 December 2003 vol 415 c824W
Mr. Gray

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs if she will list the public objectives of Regional Producers (Wiltshire) Ltd. as reported to the South West Regional Development Agency. [143598]

Alun Michael

The South West Regional Development Agency tell us they have not received any formal public objections to the support for Regional Producers (Wiltshire) Ltd. However, the Government Office for the South West has received representations from a number of shareholders in Regional Producers (Wiltshire) Ltd. that the organisation should not at present be considered for further public support. Copies of these also have been passed to the South West Regional Development Agency, Business Links for Berkshire and Wiltshire and to Defra.
