Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, if she will meet with the Tenant Farmers Association to discuss the potential merits of compensation for tenant farmers who lose land due to non-agricultural development.

The Tenant Farmers Association (TFA) raised the important matter of compensation for tenant farmers when they recently met with me, one in a series of regular meetings.

The Secretary of State is also due to meet with the TFA, providing another opportunity for this issue to be discussed.
