Local Booksellers (EDM563)

Local Booksellers

EDM number 563 in 2007-08, proposed by Gregory Campbell on 12/12/2007.
Categorised under the topics of Competition, Service industries and Small businesses.

That this House notes the continuing decline throughout the UK in the numbers of independently-owned book retailers; and is concerned for future generations, who, unless urgent action is taken by government, increasingly will be faced with only best selling titles being stocked by supermarkets and multiple stores, resulting in a substantial loss of quality local publications being made available to the reading public.

This motion has been signed by a total of 37 MPs.
