Ensure new EU regulations for GB agriculture incorporate specific climatic and scientific data

Recommendation
The Government should ensure in negotiations that GB will only adopt new EU regulations on PPPs and mycotoxin limits where GB climate, growing conditions and scientific data have been fully considered in their development. It should seek assurances, as a core requirement of any SPS framework, that GB scientific evidence, including agronomic and climatic data, will be incorporated into all new science based decisions affecting UK agriculture. (Recommendation, Paragraph 28)
