Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what her Department’s planned time frame is for the introduction of secondary legislation to implement due diligence commitments on forest risk commodities in the Environment Act 2021.
