Speaking in the House of Lords on 29 January 2025

Debate

Official Controls (Amendment) Regulations 2024

Contribution

The Government are committed to removing trade barriers, including through looking to negotiate an SPS agreement with the EU, but this will clearly take some time. This instrument therefore is needed to implement the policy that industry has been preparing for and, importantly, to ensure that biosecurity is maintained between now and any agreement taking place.
