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 make an assessment of the potential impact of the Windsor Framework on the equitability of the trading relationship between farmers and major retailers.
The Windsor Framework benefits farmers and retailers by restoring the free flow of trade from GB to NI with a first-of-its-kind green lane that will enable goods destined for NI to move easily without burdensome customs bureaucracy; guarantees unfettered access for Northern Ireland’s businesses to the UK market on a permanent basis; and ensures Northern Irish businesses have continued access to the EU market, as they requested.
