Agricultural Wages Board

Proceeding contribution from Lord Hanson of Flint (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 April 2013. It occurred during Opposition day on Agricultural Wages Board.

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for his question. I am genuinely worried that wages will fall when the AWB is abolished, and I am not the only one: the Farmers Union of Wales, which I will come on to later and which represents the bulk of farmers in my area and other farmers in Wales, supports the official Opposition’s stance against the abolition of the AWB. There is a division of opinion and we need to expose it.
