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

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment she has made of the effect of recent disruption at Calais and closures of the Channel Tunnel on seafood exports.

Defra works closely with representatives from across the food sector industries and Devolved Administrations on supply chain resilience issues. We have been in regular contact with regard to the ongoing situation in Calais to ensure that concerns are reflected in response planning.
