Gentleman what that means. I am not complacent about the difficulties in the dairy sector. The Government are examining what they can do to help. As the House will know, the remedy lies in the supply chain and in the marketplace. Column 488 subsidy than the rest of British industry put together, and it has the lowest incomes for a long time.
Friend makes a good point.
The supply side of the CAP, although it is extraordinarily expensive, does not serve United Kingdom agriculture well. As the hon. Gentleman knows, I have been a strong advocate of farmer co-operation working through the supply chain. I believe that real benefits accrue to farmers if they are able to exercise some influence further down the supply chain. That is clearly obtainable in the medium term.
