Petition

A full removal of farm assurance regulations.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Removal of Farm Assurance regulations, that are making British farmers uncompetitive.
The recent trade deal is yet another example of low standard produce that would be illegal to produce in this country, freely being imported. Serious health risks are also associated with this.
The labour government are quite obviously trying to force cheaply produced, poor quality, and unhealthy food from foreign countries, most recently from the United States, into the UK food supply chain.
No doubt allot will get packaged here and possibly sold as uk produce. This needs to be stopped, but equally the Red Tractor assurance scheme needs scrapping, to allow farmers to produce food in a competitive manner.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Assurance schemes are a matter for individual farmers to decide to sign up to.
