BBC Really Disgusting Food Series And Fish

EDM number 744 in 2009-10, proposed by Angus MacNeil on 27/01/2010.
Categorised under the topics of Broadcasting and Food.

That this House condemns the BBC for screening a programme titled Britain's Really Disgusting Food: Fish which presented a highly misleading and biased view of the fishing industry; believes it is totally irresponsible of the BBC to broadcast a programme telling people not to eat haddock, when it is healthy, nutritious food from well-managed stocks; recognises the reality is that fishermen, backed by the Scottish Government, have been leading European efforts to conserve North Sea and west coast fish stocks; and points out that the Scottish fleet has been at the forefront of pioneering conservation measures, from which there are positive results.

This motion has been signed by a total of 8 MPs.
