Answer: Mr. Flook: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what the average time that agrimonetary compensation payments were overdue in (a) England, (b) the south-west and (c) Somerset was in 2001-02. [53308] Mr. Morley: Payments of agrimonetary compensation in England due to be made in the financial year 2001-02 were nearly all made in that period. We have not interrogated the databases necessary to provide details of late payments as this could be done only at disproportionate cost.
