§ Hugh Bayley (City of York)I rise to present a petition on behalf of Michaela Scott of York and 1,246 other people.
The petition
Declares that people have for many years maintained good health by taking vitamin and mineral supplements and herbal remedies.Fears that the European food supplement directive and the proposed European directive on traditional herbal medicine products will restrict the range of such products on sale.Requests the House of Commons to require the Secretary of State for Health to protect consumers of these products by ensuring that such European legislation does not unnecessarily and unacceptably restrict the availability of natural health products.
