The motion
That this House believes that the Agricultural Wages Board has played an important role in setting wages and terms and conditions of employment for farm workers and in developing a highly skilled workforce in the rural economy; notes that the existence of the Agricultural Wages Board has promoted harmonious industrial relations between farmers and farm workers, so contributing directly to greater food security; and therefore opposes the Government's proposal to abolish the Agricultural Wages Board for England and Wales.
