Horsemeat (Food Fraud)

Proceeding contribution from Brooks Newmark (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 February 2013. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Horsemeat (Food Fraud).

I congratulate the Secretary of State on the speedy, effective, thorough and robust way in which he has handled this issue. My local butcher in Braintree clearly labels its products so I know what I am buying and where it came from. I like to support our local farmers and buy local. Will my right hon. Friend join me in encouraging retailers to have better and clear labelling, so consumers know what exactly is in the products they buy and where they come from?
