There is enough here to keep us going the whole session. We need a full debate on Common Agricultural Policy simplification, as we do on the rural development programme. We need two full debates on the international trade developments in Mercosur and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, TTIP. We need a debate on climate change if we are interested in what happens five or seven years down the line. Organics are a big issue, especially in respect of why standards vary so much between fish and land products. We need a debate on school fruit and vegetables. I suggest we defer the debate on this. Is there any legal reason we cannot defer the debate, come back in January and go through this item by item in a proper debate? I apologise for being rude but I am watching the screen as I am to speak on the second Topical Issue matter, though there are ten of us on it. It is very unsatisfactory to try to deal with this subject this evening.
