In line with civil service guidance, work to establish the Working Group was paused during the recent pre-election period. Defra officials will be establishing the Working Group soon, with the aim of the Group providing advice to Ministers in the new year.

Once the Working Group has been established, I will write to the hon. Member with details of its membership and place a copy in the library of the House
