That reflects that the ‘not-for-EU’ label does not represent a change in standards of production and quality and is simply a means of ensuring the smooth movement of goods within the UK.</p> answering member constituency Sherwood answering member printed Sir Mark Spencer question first answered 22/04/2024 13:26:57 answering member 4055 label Biography information for Sir Mark Spencer
