Proceeding contribution from Edward Leigh (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 1 April 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Food Labelling Regulations (Amendment) Bill.


Food Labelling Regulations (Amendment) Bill

We can discuss that. What the public want to know—and let us not get too technical about this—is whether an animal was reared in the UK. Was it slaughtered in the UK? Was the meat processed in the UK? Those are the essential questions, and all that we ask of the Minister for Europe is that he keep an open mind and allow the Bill to proceed so that we can test European jurisprudence.
