Scotch Beef
The motion
That the Parliament congratulates the Minister for Environment and Rural Development in getting beef produce back into European markets by holding a successful banquet of Scottish produce in Brussels last week; notes that, prior to the beef ban being implemented, beef exports provided a multi-million pound input into the Scottish economy; agrees that an increase in beef exports will give a much-needed boost to the Scottish farming industry; further welcomes increasing confidence in Scotch beef, and agrees that the development of a reinvigorated market in beef will be good for Scotland.
