Draft Common Agricultural Policy and Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019I agree with the hon. Gentleman, but there was supposed to be a seamless move from one to the other. It does not seem very seamless anymore; it seems rather senseless that we are…25 Mar 2019HANSARDDraft Rural Development (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019
Draft Rural Development (Rules and Decisions) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019I thank the hon. Gentleman for that intervention, because in a nutshell that is where we are; we just do not know.

Draft Rural Development (Rules and Decisions) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019Given how small the rural team is in DEFRA—people now just call it “DEF”, because the “RA” has dropped off—who will do this?

Draft Rural Development (Rules and Decisions) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019I agree entirely. The problem was that it did not have a budget, which meant, sadly, that it was rather stillborn, but it was a very good piece of work by Lord Deben.
