Institute for Agriculture and Horticulture
Asked by: Baroness Fookes (Conservative - Life peer) Wednesday 6th November 2024 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask His Majesty's Government whether they plan to encourage the Institute for Agriculture and Horticulture to include the ornamental sector of horticulture within its remit. Answered by Baroness Hayman of Ullock - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) The Institute for Agriculture and Horticulture (TIAH) is an independent industry led organisation. Although ornamental horticulture is not within TIAH’s initial scope, through the Environmental Horticulture Group, they have been working with the sector in areas where there are common issues and working towards longer term inclusion. |

Slaughterhouses
Asked by: Baroness Fookes (Conservative - Life peer) Wednesday 13th November 2024 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask His Majesty's Government whether they plan to encourage the setting up of small local abattoirs or the provision of local abattoirs. Answered by Baroness Hayman of Ullock - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) This is a devolved matter and the information provided therefore relates to England only.
Defra recognises the important role a sustainable smaller abattoir network plays in supporting the rural economy and food security.
Defra continues to work closely with the smaller abattoir sector and to provide support and advice to those wishing to establish new abattoirs. |

Environment Protection: Employment
Asked by: Baroness Fookes (Conservative - Life peer) Friday 3rd January 2025 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask His Majesty's Government whether they will take account of the role played by environmental horticulture in their definition of green jobs. Answered by Baroness Hayman of Ullock - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) The ONS defines green jobs as: "employment in an activity that contributes to protecting or restoring the environment, including those that mitigate or adapt to climate change" (2024, ONS - Experimental estimates of green jobs, UK - Office for National Statistics [see attached]). Given the wide-reaching nature of this definition, any occupations or tasks within environmental horticulture that fall under the definition, including for example tasks related to nature conservation, will therefore be included. |
