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

To ask Her Majesty's Government what discussions they have held with representatives of the livestock industry regarding the future of that industry after Brexit.

We have strong relationships with representatives from the livestock sector. There are monthly meetings between officials and representatives of the livestock sectors in the Brexit Livestock Group. Ministers also have regular dialogue with industry representatives about future agriculture policy including most recently through a programme of meeting at agricultural shows across the country.
