The UK will have a "voice in the room" but no vote on European Union food policies as part of a so-called "Brexit reset" to reduce red tape, EU relations minister Hamish Falconer has told the BBC.

Prime Minister Andy Burnham hopes to agree a deal at a summit on Friday but critics have said a reset will make the UK "a rule taker" but not a rule maker.

Falconer said the UK will be involved in a process to shape the rules and said the deal could help bring down prices for shoppers.
