Motion· Early Day MotionEDM 700open
United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 9 May 2000
That this House condemns Tory-controlled Kent County Council's failure to allow its new cabinet system of government to be properly held to account by the scrutiny committee which is dominated by Conservative members and has been accused of agenda fixing by Kent's Labour and Liberal Democrat group leaders; believes that the council is abusing its power by failing to provide open government as enshrined in the Access to Information Act 1985; urges the Government to provide adequate measures in the current Local Government Bill to require all local authorities to practise open government in a transparent and inclusive manner; and congratulates newspapers such as the East Kent Mercury, the Dover Mercury and all the titles published by the Kent Messenger Group on their continuing campaign for more open and transparent government, which they have entitled 'Your Right to Know'.

Motion· Early Day MotionEDM 331open
United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 28 January 2000
That this House notes with dismay that the number of lambs and sheep exported for slaughter abroad has increased significantly; is concerned that many of these animals are sent on appallingly long journeys to Italy, Greece and Spain, where often they are killed in abattoirs using cruel and illegal slaughter methods; notes that by the time the animals reach southern Europe many are suffering greatly due to overcrowding, the lack of water and proper ventilation on many vehicles, the extreme heat in summer and the sheer length of the journey; notes that the great majority of sheep exports from the UK are in meat form and believes that, with vigorous marketing on the continent, the whole of UK exports could be converted into a meat trade; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to do all it can to help bring the cruel live animal export trade to an end, and to take the lead in persuading European Union partners to adopt a major change of policy whereby, throughout the EU, the long distance transport of live farm animals is replaced by a trade in meat and carcases.
