answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>The Government aims to secure a deep and comprehensive free trade deal with the EU that continues to provide for frictionless, tariff-free trade, supporting the continued success of our agricultural sectors. Our departure from the EU also provides an opportunity for the UK to have an independent trade policy and a new agriculture policy which enables game producers and other sectors to improve their productivity and competitiveness outside of the EU, while also improving our environment. We remain confident in the resilience of our agricultural sectors and their ability to thrive outside of the EU.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Macclesfield answering member printed David Rutley question first answered 12/11/2018 15:42:26 answering member 4033 label Biography information for David Rutley
