Labelling Of Products Made From Animal Fur

EDM number 253 in 2009-10, proposed by Judy Mallaber on 25/11/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Animals, Consumers and Nature conservation.

That this House notes that recent advances in the quality and look of fake fur make it difficult for many consumers to tell the difference between items made with fake fur and those made with real fur; further notes that there is now evidence that consumers are confused and some may be purchasing items made or trimmed with real fur believing the fur to be fake; further notes that some people are allergic to real fur; further notes that a law has been introduced in the states of New York, Delaware and New Jersey requiring all real fur and fur-trimmed clothing to carry a label; and calls on the Government to introduce, as soon as possible and as a measure to protect consumers, legislative proposals for a labelling order requiring all other real fur on sale to carry a label that clearly states that the item is made using real animal fur, whether or not it has been dyed and the country of origin of the fur.

This motion has been signed by a total of 222 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
