Webinars are available to members on the current Due Diligence consultation on forest risk commodities. 2 are being offered by Defra in January, and AIC will be hosting its own webinar Q&A on this subject for members in early February.
Defra steps up to resolve the confusion around the interpretation of Farming Rules for Water, England. A move from prescription to outcome based legislation requires a widespread change in mindset.
AIC has been approached by Defra to ask if members would consider applying for the Plant Varieties and Seeds Tribunal.
This is a statutory appeal body created by primary legislation, and will make legally binding decisions about national listing of new varieties of plants and UK plant variety rights. It is UK wide.
