Cost Of Drinks And Confectionery In Cinemas

EDM number 983 in 2007-08, proposed by Sharon Hodgson on 20/02/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Arts, Consumers, Food and Service industries.

That this House deplores the extortionate costs of confectionery and drinks at many cinemas; condemns cinemas which remove customers for attempting to consume confectionery and drinks purchased outside; dismisses the notion that reducing prices of confectionery and drinks would automatically increase ticket prices; urges the Office of Fair Trading to investigate the high cost of confectionery and drinks in cinemas; and further supports a fairer deal for the public which would increase the number of visitors to cinemas and encourage wider support for the UK film industry.

This motion has been signed by a total of 45 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
