CAPTIVE BREEDING OF ENDANGERED SPECIES

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 9 November 2000

That this House condemns the international trade in bear bile, which involves the keeping and breeding of Asiatic bears in Asian bear farms, where conditions are extremely cruel and totally unsuitable, and which would be unacceptable in the UK; condemns the captivity and international trade in whales and dolphins, which subject animals to unacceptable conditions and high mortality; notes that the Plants and Animals Committee of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species is meeting in the USA in December to discuss, amongst other issues, the registration of captive breeding facilities for endangered species and the trade therein; and calls on the United Kingdom Government to ensure that they adopt a precautionary approach at all times in order to prevent the possibility of the backdoor legalisation of these cruel and unsustainable international trades.

REDUNDANCIES AT CORUS

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 24 July 2000

That this House notes the 3,900 redundancies announced by Corus, the Anglo-Dutch steel producer, in North Lincolnshire, Yorkshire, Teeside, Scotland and South Wales since June; further recognises that these redundancies mean that Corus have now made more people redundant than Rover have in the West Midlands; calls upon the Government to give the same co-ordinated ministerial support at a national level as they have given to Rover, shipbuilding and the coal industries in times of distress; deplores the lack of consultation with the ISTC and the other unions representing employees in the steel industry; believes that loyal and hardworking steel workers and their communities are being sacrificed for short-term gains to Corus' balance sheet at a time when the strength of the pound has begun to decrease; is appalled at the drawn out nature and 'spinning' of the redundancy announcements; and calls upon the Government to introduce legislation to ensure that UK employees and their representatives are consulted prior to any major redundancy announcements, thus enjoying the same level of fairness as their EC counterparts.
