Proceeding contribution from Hilary Benn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 June 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Food Security.
Food Security
I will give way one final time in a minute, as it is my hon. Friend. What is striking about this debate is that all of us can think of things that we might need to worry about—[Interruption.] I did give way to the hon. Member for Shrewsbury and Atcham (Daniel Kawczynski). However, the answers are not clear. While the hon. Member for South-East Cambridgeshire listed a series of things about which he wished to complain, his speech was light on answers. I do not say that because I doubt his ability, but because, in truth, all of us are trying to work out the right policy to adopt to respond to this issue.
