Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 3 September 2019. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Sheep Farming: No-deal EU Exit.
Sheep Farming: No-deal EU Exit
I thank the hon. Lady for bringing this matter to the House for consideration. I spoke to her earlier today and perhaps her opinion on Brexit is very different from mine, but the Conservative Government have indicated that as long as they have the power to do so, they will maintain the grants that are available for farmers, and for sheep farmers in particular. Does she agree that the problems and the deficits there might be in lamb prices could be offset by the Government’s commitment to give what the EU gives now?
