Agriculture and Food: Statements.
On the beef sector, there have been protests in recent weeks concerning the price of beef. I was concerned that the disagreement between suppliers and factories could have given rise to a situation where the sector as a whole might suffer as a result of interruption of supplies of beef to our main markets. Fortunately, this has been avoided and I welcome the fact that slaughterings are continuing as normal.
