• Apple And Pear Development Council (Dissolution) Order 1989 Lords · Lords Chamber · 29 November 1989

  That concludes my remarks on the dissolution order, and I shall now turn to the Apple and Pear Research Council Order 1989, which I shall call the new order. Much of the new order is identical to the one under which the APDC was established so I do not propose to go through it article by article. Basically it sets up a new development council under the 1947 Act with powers to raise an annual charge on commercial apple and pear growers to be spent primarily on funding research and development.

• Apple And Pear Development Council (Dissolution) Order 1989 Lords · Lords Chamber · 29 November 1989

  The noble Baroness said: My Lords, these orders are being presented in accordance with the requirements of the Industrial Organisation and Development Act 1947. The first order, the Apple and Pear Development Council (Dissolution) Order 1989, dissolves the Apple and Pear Development Council. The second, the Apple and Pear Research Council Order 1989, establishes a new council. As its name suggests, its principal responsibility will be to collect and spend a levy for research and development in the apple and pear sector.
