What assessment has the Minister made of the possibility of farming protests across Wales in relation to the Welsh Government's sustainable farming scheme?

Answered by Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd | Answered on 14/02/2024

Officials are holding a series of farmer roadshow events around Wales raising awareness of the Sustainable Farming Scheme Consultation and speaking to farmers from all sectors and all areas. These events are designed to encourage responses to the Consultation and will influence the final design of the scheme through genuine consultation.

The Welsh Government works closely with the emergency services to keep under review major risks that may impact Wales.
