PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
THREAT TO WENSLEYDALE CHEESE (19 May 1992)

Motion Details

That this House notes with alarm the planned closure of the Wensleydale Creamery at Hawes, posing a threat to British cheese more potent than anything emanating from Brussels; and calls upon Dairy Crest, even though they are based in the foreign hinterland of Surrey, to deny the base rumours and publicly proclaim their determination to leave the pride of British cheeses to flourish.
