Clause 1 - Foot-and-Mouth Disease
Animal Health Bill
9:15 am

Mrs Ann Winterton (Congleton, Conservative)
The hon. Gentleman makes a telling intervention, with which I could not agree more. I cannot further embellish what he said. I prefer the phrase ``compulsory purchase'' to ``compensation'', because that is, in effect, what happens even though the word compensation is always used. The hon. Gentleman made a valid and telling point, and I agree with it 100 per cent.
