PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
CHINESE FUR FARMS (12 September 2011)

That this House notes the film evidence of extreme animal cruelty in Chinese fur farms gathered by undercover investigators and revealed by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals through its China's Shocking Fur Trade campaign; believes that such barbaric treatment of animals should not be tolerated anywhere in the world; calls on the Government to urge the Chinese authorities to stop the cruelty in fur farms and take urgent action to improve standards of animal welfare; and urges the Government to push the EU to impose a country of origin label to ensure consumers are able to make fully informed choices about products made from fur.
