PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
MAKING POVERTY HISTORY THROUGH TRADE JUSTICE (9 October 2005)

Motion Details

That this House believes that trade justice is vital if making poverty history is to be achieved; notes that December's World Trade Organisation (WTO) summit presents a key moment in the Doha Development Round; believes that the UK Government should not push developing countries to open up their markets but should respect their right to decide on trade policies that will help them end poverty, respect workers' rights and protect their environment; and calls on the Government to work with its partners in the European Union to change the European Commissioner's approach in order to ensure that WTO agreements allow developing countries to use trade policies to protect the livelihoods of their poor farmers and develop their own sustainable economic strength, and to choose the best policies for poor people and the environment in services such as water, health and education.
