Open Europe Report On Common Agricultural Policy Reform
EDM number 2972 in 2010-12, proposed by Roger Godsiff on 17/04/2012.
Categorised under the topic of Agriculture.
That this House commends the recent Open Europe report on the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) which has calculated that the UK remains a big loser from the CAP; notes that the report calculates that between 2007 and 2013, the UK will contribute 33.7 billion to the CAP and get back 26.6 billion, a net contribution of 7.1 billion, and believes that there remains no clear link between the wealth of a country and how much it receives from the CAP; and calls on the Government as a matter of urgency to campaign for a full liberalisation of the CAP along the lines advocated by Open Europe and to deliver a new, pragmatic, radically revamped EU farm policy, which would allow for resources to be effectively allocated to generate production and environment benefits, while better targeting jobs and growth.
This motion has been signed by a total of 15 MPs.
