European Union Ban On Leghold Traps

EDM number 70 in 1995-96, proposed by Elliot Morley on 20/11/1995.

That this House expresses grave concern at reports that the Council of Ministers may decide to postpone the implementation of a ban on the importation of furs caught in non-humane leghold traps into the Europen Union; notes this ban is due to be implemented on 1st January 1996; notes the failure of the International Standards Organisation to agree a humane standard for such traps; welcomes the fact that Russia has already taken steps to end the use of such traps; and calls upon the Government to ensure the Department of Trade and Industry and Foreign Office do not support any moves to postpone this decision.

This motion has been signed by a total of 141 MPs.
