Ministerial response


A minister replied that the Deputy is right, saying the knowledge transfer schemes have been part of the world development programme under the CAP and have been very successful. The minister said there is a likelihood that the next Вас game is going to be delayed by at least a year and that transitionary arrangements are intended to try and accommodate the knowledge transfers under that provision.
