Will the Cabinet Secretary provide an update on the banning of peat in compost, and will this ban include imported compost?

It is intended the ban will cover all peat sales in Wales. My officials are continuing to engage with Welsh stakeholders and the UK Government to discuss key issues to ensure policy development and future legislation considers all practical and technical issues.
