Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they intend to introduce catchment level limits on poultry units in catchments where the rivers have been assessed as suffering from nutrient pollution.
This Government is committed to tackling nutrient pollution and improving the health of our rivers. Its focus is on driving efficient use of nutrients and addressing the root causes of losses into the environment. This includes through reforming agricultural regulations to drive good nutrient management on farms.
