Stuart Anderson (South Shropshire) (Con)
I thank the hon. Member for securing a very good debate. On food security, in south Shropshire, just outside Onibury, there is a campaign to stop over 130 acres of solar panels going on good agricultural land. The plans would make it harder to be resilient and to provide food security as a country. Does he agree that no solar panels should go across good agricultural land?
Karl Turner (in the Chair)
Order. I remind Members that there are lots of people who want to speak. Interventions really do need to be short.
