Farmers' Basic Payment Scheme (Revised Wording) - Amendment 2

Farmers' Basic Payment Scheme (Revised Wording) - Amendment 2
Leave out all after ‘small family farms;’ and insert: ‘welcomes the fact that this annual support was maintained at pre-2020 levels for the duration of the last Parliament; acknowledges, however, the need to address the significant uncertainty regarding the future of the Basic Payment Scheme, worth £300m a year, beyond 2024; and calls on the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs to urgently press the UK Government for an increased, ring-fenced, inflation-proof and multi-annual farm support and development budget to support our farmers and the wider agricultural sector.’
