asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (1) what assistance he anticipates being able to offer to the home-produced bacon industry to enable it to regain its former share of the market;(2) what representations he has made within the EEC concerning the size of the monetary compensatory amounts paid to Danish and Dutch bacon producers.

I refer the hon. Member to the reply given yesterday to the hon. Member for Macclesfield (Mr. Winterton) and others.
