Horsemeat

Proceeding contribution from Jake Berry (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 February 2013. It occurred during Opposition day on Horsemeat.

We take traceability extremely seriously in Rossendale and Darwen, where we have many livestock farmers. The encouraging part of this crisis is the increase in trade with local butchers, who offer the best way of knowing where one’s meat has come from. Whitehead’s in Edgworth, Riley’s in Crawshawbooth and Turner’s in Darwen are all butchers selling locally produced meat—one can look out of the window and see the animals.
