PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Farms: Tenancy Agreements (27 November 2017)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what recent discussions his Department has had on reforming farm tenancies.

Asked by:
Kerry McCarthy (Labour)

Answer

Ministers and officials have discussed a range of issues relating to agricultural tenancies with the Tenancy Reform Industry Group and other stakeholders as we design a future agricultural policy to support our farmers to grow more, sell more and export more great British food. We invited views from the Tenancy Reform Industry Group earlier this summer on a number of issues linked to supporting new entrants to the industry. They recently published some proposals which are available on their members’ websites.
