Proceeding contribution from Angus Brendan MacNeil (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 October 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Foot and Mouth/Bluetongue.


Foot and Mouth/Bluetongue

I thank the hon. Gentleman for pointing out the non-devolved aspect of the budget and I draw attention to the commendable argument made by the National Farmers Union in Scotland, which has asked for a mere £15 per head welfare compensation scheme. That is a low price; it is not top dollar by any means. It is a sensible request for bottoming out, to which the Secretary of State has unfortunately not yet listened.
