PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
SALE OF BRITISH APPLES IN SUPERMARKETS (26 November 2003)
Motion Details
That this House notes that only 30 per cent. of apples sold in supermarkets in the UK are British-grown; recognises that, according to a report carried out by Friends of the Earth, greengrocers and market stalls stock more British apples, sold at a cheaper price; and calls on the United Kingdom supermarket chains to support British produce and stock a greater percentage of British apples, providing consumers with the opportunity to support British produce.
