Proceeding contribution from Lord Jopling (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 7 November 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Rural Payments Agency.
Rural Payments Agency
My Lords, the House will recall my interest as a recipient under the scheme. Perhaps I may ask the Minister a question which perplexes a huge number of farmers. They note that the chief executive officer of the RPA was fired; they read in the press within the past couple of weeks that the noble Lord, Lord Bach, has said that he believes he was fired, too, because of the appalling management of this scheme. Why did not the buck stop at the top?
