SOURCING OF SEA BASS SUPPLY FROM HAND-LINE FISHERMAN

Early day motion 995, tabled 19 April 2004 by Adrian Sanders (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 46 members.

That this House notes the continuing slaughter of dolphins and other cetaceans as a consequence of industrial pair trawling for sea bass; believes 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 Her Majesty's Government to encourage all outlets across all departments under its influence to do likewise.

Signatures by party: Labour 23, Liberal Democrat 17, Plaid Cymru 3, Conservative 1, Labour/Co-operative 1, UUP 1.
