Post Brexit farm subsidies under review

ITV News reports on the announcement that the Government is to launch an independent review of how farm funding will be distributed between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland after Brexit.

An independent advisory panel, led by Lord Bew, will recommend how best to distribute money after the UK is no longer subject to the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy.
