Importing Of Wild-Caught Birds

EDM number 990 in 1990-91, proposed by Roger Gale on 18/06/1991.

That this House deplores the international trade in wild-caught birds; notes that this traffic results in the death of three out of every four of those birds caught in the wild or taken from their nests, conveyed under frequently inhumane conditions and badly handled on arrival; further notes that the trade includes a number of endangered species; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to seek, through the Council of Ministers, a ban on the import of all such birds into the European Community.

This motion has been signed by a total of 60 MPs.
