Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between David Davis and Lord Hanson of Flint

Thursday 2nd November 2017 Commons Chamber

[Mr Davis]

I can say two things. First, let me deal with the premise of the hon. Lady’s question. We are in a position in which the European Council will come to a conclusion in the middle of December—I think that it meets on 13 and 14 December. I have said at this Dispatch Box today, while she was listening, that we will undertake the negotiation as fast as possible thereafter. How much more urgent we can be, I do not know.

[David Hanson (Delyn) (Lab)]

Will one of the Ministers give some early clarity over the issue of protected status for agricultural exports, including the 14 agricultural products in Wales worth more than £300 million?
