Mr Carr said dairy farm­ ers had been hard pressed recently by quota restric­ tions and high interest rates. The Government proposed a charge of £90 for compulsory farm hygiene. The Alliance pro­ posed a motion in parlia­ me nt to r emove the charge, which they con­ sidered to be unfair and unnecessary.
