John Powell has been invited to give evidence in front of the House of Lords European Affairs Committee alongside the NFU’s Tom Bradshaw and a representative from the Ports Authority on 19 May 2026. It will be the fifth in a series of sessions on SPS negotiations and dynamic alignment and a good opportunity for BMPA to highlight key issues and priorities for the meat industry. We’ll keep you posted on proceedings and share a link to the meeting when it’s available.
