UK Self-Sufficiency In Food
EDM number 62 in 2004-05, proposed by James Paice on 23/11/2004.
That this House notes with concern that the proportion of food and drink produced in Britain for domestic consumption has fallen by six per cent. under the present government, following a long plateau of stability in market share; recognises that this has had wide-ranging implications for farm income, the environment and animal welfare; urges United Kingdom supermarket chains to support British produce; and calls on the Government to introduce legislation to ensure that only food produced in Britain can be labelled as British.
This motion has been signed by a total of 76 MPs.
