I visited an organic dairy farm in 2014 and discussed the potential for organic milk production and exports with representatives of the OMSCO organic milk co-operative.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government supports organic milk farmers through conversion and maintenance payments made under the CAP for organic land. Officials have also investigated the potential for exports of organic dairy products. However the supply of milk to wholesalers and retailers is a commercial matter for industry.<\/p>

Upholding plant biosecurity is a key priority for Defra and we have taken a number of measures to reduce the risk of introduction of pests and diseases. Last year, we published a Plant Biosecurity Strategy, which addressed the recommendations of the Tree Health and Plant Expert Biosecurity Taskforce which included strengthening biosecurity to reduce risks at the border. We have also introduced a UK Plant Health Risk Register, an important tool to screen new threats and identify priority actions.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

In recognition of the increased risks including from trade globalisation, we have played an active role in the negotiation of a new EU plant health regime, to provide strengthened import checks targeted at the highest risk material and tightened internal controls to minimize risks from material moving within the EU.<\/p>

I refer the hon. Member to the answer given to Lord Black of Brentwood on 3 July 2015. PQ UIN HL795 listed the number of offenders found guilty of animal neglect and cruelty (which is prosecuted under Section 4 of the Animal Welfare Act 2006) in England and Wales as a whole in 2014:<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The number of prosecutions for causing unnecessary suffering to an animal under section 4 of the Animal Welfare Act 2006 for each of the last five years, for which records are available, can be viewed in the table below. Centrally held statistics do not record the species of animal involved.<\/p>

(1) An offence under SS4(1) & 32(1) and 4(2) & 32(1) Animal Welfare Act 2006, which came into force on 6 April 2007.<\/p>

<\/p>

(2) The figures given in the table relate to persons for whom these offences were the principal offences for which they were dealt with. When a defendant has been found guilty of two or more offences it is the offence for which the heaviest penalty is imposed. Where the same disposal is imposed for two or more offences, the offence selected is the offence for which the statutory maximum penalty is the most severe.<\/p>

<\/p>

(3) Every effort is made to ensure that the figures presented are accurate and complete. However, it is important to note that these data have been extracted from large administrative data systems generated by the courts and police forces. As a consequence, care should be taken to ensure data collection processes and their inevitable limitations are taken into account when those data are used.<\/p>
