In today’s EFRA Select Committee Barry questioned Witnesses: Tim Rycroft,( Chief OperatingOfficer, Food and Drink Federation); Simon Doherty, (Senior Vice President, British Veterinary Association (BVA)) and, Richard Griffiths, (Chief Executive, British Poultry Council). Barry’s interrogation focused on the Government’s immigration proposals and was structured in the form of these 3 questions:
1) The Unionisation of the Workplace
2) The level of Government engagement they have had in their industry
3) The confidence they have in planning ahead for the next year
Worryingly, when asked to give a score out of 10 for the third question, the combined total came to just 7 out of 30.
