Business question from Ian Liddell-Grainger (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 5 February 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

The past few days have shown that upland hill farmers have had a pretty tough time, especially in the midlands and through Somerset and Exmoor, which I represent. Can we have a debate in Government time on the desperate situation of upland hill farmers, which has worsened over successive years? If we want to keep the United Kingdom's upland landscape beautiful, please may we discuss how those farmers can be helped by the Government?
