Sourcing Of Sea Bass Supply From Hand-Line Fishermen

EDM number 76 in 2006-07, proposed by Adrian Sanders on 15/11/2006.

That this House notes the continuing slaughter of dolphins and other cetaceans as a consequence of industrial pair trawling for sea bass; believes that all buyers should follow the example of restaurants in the South Hams, Teignbridge and Torbay and source their supply from hand-line fishermen rather than pair trawlers; and calls on the Government to encourage all outlets across all departments under its influence to do likewise.

This motion has been signed by a total of 29 MPs.
