Proceeding contribution from Lord Bach (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 28 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Commons Bill [HL].


Commons Bill [HL]

My Lords, in writing to the noble Baroness about agri-environment schemes generally, I may be able also to answer that important question. One potential funding source for the establishment of associations is our old friend Natural England. It may be part of its purpose to assist the setting up of associations. Those who partake in agri-environment schemes normally see the benefits further down the line. Whether some of the benefit could be at an earlier stage in setting up the association itself is an interesting and serious question which I will respond to in my letter.
