Plenty of other Defra consultations have gone on.
Only one I've noticed an email from TFF towers about.

Given the timing of the registration process and the election of members to the dairy positions it's a fix anyway!

Actually - I am now speaking to Defra teams directly and they now know the service is available for us to push any of their consultations.
The main issue is the number of people at Defra and them knowing to ask me for help.
We are working with them on Animal Transportation as well at the moment.

Just another avenue of media to use.
Do you really think they will listen?
Keeps you in a job I suppose
At least DEFRA via TFF are trying to raise awareness of this consultation.Just another avenue of media to use.

Having spoken to Tim Mordan of DEFRA last week I raised the point that the NFU and AHDB have been notably quite on this consultation (and in respect to the NFU especially compared to their previous promotion of the animal transport and TB consultations), choosing to mainly push the AHDB’s own internal consultation, over and above the DEFRA consultation. He acknowledged that coverage and engagement with farmers could have been better and stated that DEFRA would attempt to increase engagement themselves. I assume the PM to TFF members was part of this.
