Proceeding contribution from Roger Williams (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 3 November 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Farm Animal Welfare.
Farm Animal Welfare
The hon. Gentleman makes an important point about the market driving improvements in animal welfare, with 50 per cent. of eggs sold in supermarkets being free range. Surprisingly, all the eggs served by McDonald's, for instance, are free range now. That is a testament to the power of the market.
