I read the statement in the office before I came to the meeting. I have to say that I cannot grasp it. I am a farmer and have been involved with Brussels for more years than I want to remember. What is the rationale behind doing this? The statement mentions boosting sustainability and enabling co-operation but subsequently states that the new exclusion will not give greater remuneration. I just do not get this.
