This has been one of the chief contributory factors in the Livestock Crisis, and unless it is changed the alternative -animal lovers should recognise this - is to see tens of thousands of cattle, or more, slowly dying of malnutrition in a fodder-short Britain in the winter of 1974–75.

However, in my time, in the past 32 years, this has been the Worst Livestock Crisis.

The hon. Member for Angus, East (Mr. Welsh) drew attention not only to the Livestock Crisis in the hills, but to the difficulties faced by soft fruit growers.

Ministry inaction in the face of the growing Livestock Crisis must cease.

I rise to speak in this debate as a member of the Select Committee on Welsh Affairs, which in the past few months has produced a detailed report on the Crisis in Livestock in Wales and recommended that the role of supermarkets should be referred to the Office of Fair Trading.

If he and his colleagues care so little about a Serious Livestock Crisis that all they can do is roar with laughter, I hope that farmers throughout the country will receive that message.
