Motion Text

leave out from 'economy', to end and add 'welcomes the Food for Thought conference to be held at Stoneleigh Park on 14th March; and supports the development of a UK Fairtrade mark as an excellent way of assisting UK farmers, building global solidarity between front-line producers, promoting the benefits of co-operation, challenging the idiocies of the Common Agricultural Policy and making good links between rural communities across the world following the excellent example set by Garstang, Lancashire, the world's first Fairtrade town and New Koforidua in Ghana.'.
