UK Self-Sufficiency In Food
EDM number 121 in 2005-06, proposed by James Paice on 17/05/2005.
That this House notes with concern that the proportion of food and drink produced in the UK for domestic consumption has fallen significantly under the present Government following a long plateau of stability in market share; recognises that this has had wide ranging implications for farm incomes, jobs, 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 the UK can be labelled as British.
This motion has been signed by a total of 95 MPs.
