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

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what her policy is on maintaining the standards set out in EU food standards directives after the UK has left the EU.

No decisions have yet been taken about the UK’s future relationship with the EU including on matters relating to existing EU law. We will ensure that food standards are maintained in the UK to provide continued high standards for consumers and stability for business.
