As in 2013 we received a superb welcome from the city. We continue to ask all attendees to complete an online feedback questionnaire. A good percentage complete this but I would urge all members to take the time to participate. It is incredibly useful to the conference office and FCC and does influence whether we visit a venue again and if we do, what changes we need to try and make. FCC Changes Following the committee elections at the end of last year there were a number of changes to the membership of FCC. Qassim Afzal, Louise Bloom, Sal Brinton, Prateek Buch, Veronica German, Evan Harris and David Rendel either did not restand or were not re-elected. All played a valuable role on FCC and will be missed. We welcome Jon Ball, Zoe O’Connell and Mary Reid onto the committee as directly elected members. FPC have elected two new representatives onto FCC and we welcome back Linda Jack and Jeremy Hargreaves in these roles. Both have previously served on FCC so are familiar with the way we work. One of the FE reps is also new with Kaavya Kaushik joining James Gurling as an FE rep on FCC. -

Thursday 12 June 2014 Albert Owen (Ynys Môn) (Lab): Farmers and food producers raise the issue of labelling often with me and The House met at half-past Nine o’clock other Members. Can the Minister assure the House that his Department is doing everything it can to have clear PRAYERS labelling on all packaging, particularly after the horsemeat crisis and various other issues, so that we can have country of origin and even region of origin labelling on [MR SPEAKER in the Chair] our packaging? BUSINESS BEFORE QUESTIONS George Eustice: Some new labelling requirements from the European Union have just been put in place, to SPOLIATION ADVISORY PANEL distinguish between animals that are born, reared and Resolved, slaughtered in a particular country, reared and slaughtered That an humble Address be presented to Her Majesty, That there or simply slaughtered there. That is a major she will be graciously pleased to give directions that there be laid improvement. We have stopped short of having compulsory before this House a Return of the Report from Sir Donnell country of origin labelling on processed foods, because Deeny, Chairman of the Spoliation Advisory Panel, dated 12 June the European Commission report suggested that it would 2014, in respect of a painted wooden tablet, the Biccherna Panel, now in the possession of the British Library.—(John Penrose.) be incredibly expensive to implement. -

Northern Sparks
Northern Sparks Report of the North of England Electrification Task Force March 2015 Foreword by Andrew Jones MP Chair of the North of England Electrification Task Force Welcome to the report of the North of England Electrification Task Force. Our brief was to prioritise the rail lines of the North of England for future electrification and we have done that. The thirty-two lines of the Northern Rail and TransPennine Express franchise areas currently without electrification have all been considered and prioritised. The results have been grouped into three tiers, with Tier One being the most immediate priority. We have placed economic growth at the centre of our work. The Task Force agreed early on that the economic benefits of electrification would be the dominant factor in our assessments. We have worked on the premise that all the lines of the North would be electrified, it is only a question of when. This report is a team effort. That team has come from across the North; bringing together different regions, different political parties and different tiers of government. And it has been a harmonious and unanimous effort throughout. It is from the North for the North. It is to be seen in the context of the government’s investment in the electrification of our rail network. It is also to be seen in the context of the Northern Powerhouse and the work to drive the economy of the North of England. I would like to thank all the Task Force members - Julie Hilling MP, Ian Swales MP, The Leader of Bradford City Council (Cllr Dave Green) and the Leader of Warrington Borough Council (Cllr Terry O’Neill) – for all their hard work and enthusiasm. -
