Statutory Registration Of Herbalists

EDM number 295 in 2009-10, proposed by John McDonnell on 30/11/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Health services.

That this House notes that certain herbal medicines, including Ayurveda, Chinese medicine, Kampo, traditional Tibetan medicine, Unani Tibb and western herbal medicine, may be effectively outlawed in the UK by the EU unless statutory regulation is introduced by the Government before April 2011, and that the Government's recent consultation on this issue has concluded; and therefore calls on the Government to bring forward promptly a statutory system for registering and regulating herbalists, acupuncturists and practitioners of other traditional medicine systems to meet the EU requirements and thus ensure that patients continue to have access to the full range of traditional medicines they are currently able to receive.

This motion has been signed by a total of 50 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
