Mr. Denzil Davies
To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food how much the total payments received by the agricultural industry in England were under the common agricultural policy in each of the last three years.
Mr. Curry
Total expenditure in the United Kingdom under the CAP in the last three years was:
| £ million | |
| 1987–88 | 1,611·1 |
| 1988–89 | 1,362·9 |
| 1989–90 | 1,230·5 |
Although it is possible to identify some of the payments which have been made to the agriculture industry in England—details are contained in the annual appropriation accounts class IV—Agriculture, Fisheries and Food—it is not possible to disaggregate all United Kingdom CAP expenditure in this way.
