Agriculture Bill inquiry

Inquiry


Neil Parish, Chair of the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee, has welcomed the Government’s publication of a new Agriculture Bill.

The Committee is launching a short inquiry on the scope, provisions and powers proposed in the Agriculture Bill. The Committee invites written submissions by Monday 8 October 2018.

Commenting on the introduction of the Bill in the House of Commons today by the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, Neil Parish said:

“The Agriculture Bill will be a landmark piece of legislation with potential to transform UK farming and commit to environmental protections.

“As Chair of the cross-party EFRA Committee, I look forward to scrutinising the details it contains, and consider what practical implications it will have for the British farming sectors.”
