MILK PRICES

Early day motion 392, tabled 12 July 2012 by David Morris (Conservative). Signed by 25 members.

That this House notes that 3,000 dairy farmers met in Westminster on 11 July 2012; further notes this meeting was as a result of the chronic underpayment of farmers for milk; believes that processors and retailers have a duty to pay a fair price for all produce; commends the National Farmers Union for bringing this important issue into media attention; and calls on the whole House to support dairy farmers in their campaign for fair prices.
