Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Paul Keetch (Liberal Democrat), on Thursday, 11 October 2007, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 25 members in total.


CIDER BRANDY

That this House opposes new draft EU regulations reviewing present EU Regulation 1576/89 dropping the term cider brandy in favour of cider spirit; believes that this will be detrimental to the sale of the product by using terminology detracting from its traditional manufacture that can be traced back to 1678; and calls upon the Government to ensure that the term cider brandy is retained.
