Speaking in the House of Lords on 30 April 2025

Debate

Agriculture (Delinked Payments) (Reductions) (England) Regulations 2025

Contribution

Approving these regulations would betray the farmers who feed our nation and steward our precious landscapes. We must halt them, reopen the SFI, conduct a proper impact assessment, and develop a transition that truly supports farmers, ensures our food security and delivers genuine environmental improvements. I urge noble Lords to support my amendment to decline approval of these deeply damaging regulations. I ask the Minister to think again and to withdraw these regulations until the new scheme is in place. I beg to move.
