Fairtrade Towns

EDM number 2287 in 2005-06, proposed by Timothy Farron on 05/06/2006.

That this House commends Kirkby Lonsdale on its application to become a Fairtrade Town; notes that the town is making good progress towards meeting the five criteria for Fairtrade Town status; and celebrates the Fairtrade Town movement, which was started in May 2000 when Garstang in Lancashire declared itself the world's first Fairtrade Town.

This motion has been signed by a total of 34 MPs.
