Dairy Industry

I congratulate the hon. Member for Ceredigion (Mark Williams) on securing the debate. This is an extremely important subject, and it is gratifying to see Members from Wales here. Indeed, until a moment ago, when the hon. Member for Preseli Pembrokeshire (Mr. Crabb) left, we had what one might term a rainbow coalition on this side of the Chamber. This is an important matter because, as has been said so many times, the family farm is of huge significance in Wales. That significance goes beyond the short-term bottom line, because individual businesses are not just businesses—they are the backbone of the rural community and the way to keep young people in our rural areas.
