Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Adrian Sanders (Liberal Democrat), on Monday, 19 April 2004, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 46 members in total.


SOURCING OF SEA BASS SUPPLY FROM HAND-LINE FISHERMAN

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.
