The motion

That this House celebrates National Fish and Chip Day 2026, which marks the 11th anniversary of the event; recognises the contribution of fish and chip businesses to the economy, hospitality sector and local communities; acknowledges increases to prices in the sector, including the cost of energy, raw goods and packaging, staff wages and changes to employer National insurance contributions; celebrates Mike’s Traditional Fish and Chips in Bishopstoke for being shortlisted in the National Fish and Chip Awards 2026 and for their role in the local community by employing staff from the local area, often school-leavers who are working for the first time and learning professional skills; and champions the contribution of small local hospitality businesses in strengthening our high streets and creating jobs across the UK.
