A TORY minister was told to come clean yesterday over how much public cash was wasted trying to overturn a Welsh government policy to protect agricultural workers.

Labour shadow farming minister Huw Irranca-Davies demanded to know how much was spent on twice challenging the establishment of an agricultural workers’ wage board for Wales in court.

Cardiff’s Labour government is setting-up the board after a similar body, which set wage for rural workers across Britain, was scrapped by the Tories last year.
