The Scottish Food Coalition's report, Plenty: Food, Farming and Health in a New Scotland, was quoted several times during a Parliamentary debate on Scotland's Food Future on 18th March.
Cabinet Secretary for Rural Affairs, Food and the Environment Richard Lochhead commended it as 'first class' and stated 'the report certainly gives us many ideas for how we can get to a much better place in the future'. There is a full transcript of the debate available here and you can also watch the debate here. |
