I would like opinions from the witnesses on that.

Moving to my next question, the global population is set to treble and we have a war in Ukraine and we all know we cannot get certain food products because of it. Why is there not a special case being made for agriculture in the EU in light of the fact there are issues around food security and farming organisations such as the IFA have said any unfair calculation will threaten food security? Why is there not common sense here, and some logic? I would like Mr. Hourigan's thoughts on that. Does he feel our MEPs need to fight to make a special case for agriculture and for it to be done across Europe?
