The motion

That this House notes the proposed takeover of Cadbury by the American firm Kraft Foods; further notes Cadbury's commitment to Fairtrade for its flagship Cadbury Dairy Milk brand and other products; further notes the work of the ground-breaking Cadbury Cocoa Partnership that Cadbury established in 2008 with the United Nations Development Programme and the governments, farmers and communities in Ghana, India, Indonesia and the Caribbean; and calls on Kraft, if the takeover is confirmed, to continue and build on Cadbury's commitment to Fairtrade and the Cocoa Partnership.
