Neither public representatives nor farmers can get through to the helpline. On 25 occasions last week I tried to access the helpline number and failed. Yesterday I encountered a similar situation. I contacted the Minister's private secretary and was told the Minister and her staff had a similar problem in accessing the helpline. The way farmers are being treated by this Government is scandalous.
