Speaking in the House of Lords on 29 January 2025

Debate

Official Controls (Amendment) Regulations 2024

Contribution

That includes our negotiations with the EU regarding SPS agreements and veterinary medicines agreements. A number of noble Lords asked about this, particularly my noble friend Lady Ritchie and the noble Baroness, Lady Suttie. I cannot give any detailed information beyond saying that this is right at the top of our agenda. We are working extremely hard on it. I was gratified to see some very positive press from the EU regarding those discussions and the reset. We are continuing to rebuild that relationship and stress the areas that are of particular importance to us. As soon as I have any further information, I will of course share that with noble Lords.
