Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 June 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Food Security.
Food Security
I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman, who is being generous in giving way. He is right about UK food production being vital for the food security of our country—I certainly agree with him there—and I am interested to hear what he says about GM foods. Will he set out his party's policies on the controversial issue of biofuels? What policies should the Government pursue to adapt to the climate change to which he referred—adapting in a way that builds and increases our food security? What measures should be taken?
