Our Submission
The NFU has written to the Chancellor ahead of his announcements.
In our submission, we've again raised some medium to long-term implications of Brexit and touched on how we have been consulting extensively with our members to develop a framework for a new Domestic Agricultural Policy.
Post-Brexit trading arrangements, access to labour, domestic agricultural policy, transitional arrangements, and a stable and certain fiscal environment which encourages innovation and investment also feature in our letter.
