Alternative To Animal Markets

EDM number 750 in 2001-02, proposed by Paul Flynn on 29/01/2002.

That this House welcomes the reduction in animal suffering and costs caused by the sale of farm animals through video links, the Internet and direct sales during the enforced closure of animals markets; and calls on the Government to encourage non-market sales in order to reduce risk of infections and to avoid the stress for animals in avoidable journeys and cramped conditions in stock markets.

This motion has been signed by a total of 27 MPs.
