Agriculture Bill

Proceeding contribution from Nick Boles (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 10 October 2018. It occurred during Debate on bills on Agriculture Bill.

I am seduced by the vision of the future of British agriculture painted by the Secretary of State, but I am puzzled why he wants to take so long before he can get started on it. Why do we have to remain trapped in the limbo of the transition, whereby we will still be trapped in the common agricultural policy when, by joining the European Free Trade Association and the European economic area on our way out of the EU, we could start on his magnificent reforms next March?
