Rural Economy

Proceeding contribution from Earl Peel (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 2 February 2006. It occurred during Parliamentary proceeding on Rural Economy.
My Lords, from what the Minister has said, can I assume that he regards the single farm payment as a payment made to farmers in exchange for providing good environmental and animal welfare, and that it is not a subsidy? That is a very important question to which the farming community would be very interested to know the answer.
