DEFINITION OF A PINT OF BEER

Tabled by Richard Younger-Ross (Liberal Democrat) 46 signatures

The motion

That this House expresses concern at the continued practice of defining a pint of beer and lager as only 95 per cent. liquid; notes that this costs consumers over £400 million annually; supports the call from the Campaign for Real Ale that a `pint' should be a `pint'; and calls upon the Government to legislate for a pint to be defined as 100 per cent. liquid.
