Proceeding contribution from Lord Hanson of Flint (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 February 2012. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Agricultural Policy.


Agricultural Policy

I asked the Minister of State, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether he supported the Farmers Union of Wales’s views on the abolition of the Agricultural Wages Board, and he said that he did not. Has the Secretary of State, in the Government’s private meetings, reflected the FUW’s views that the abolition of wages boards is wrong because it restricts training and entry into agriculture in Wales, and does she support its opinion?
