M P slams EU ruling on food supplements


HEALTH food stores could be forced to take popular products off the shelf under a new and controversial European Union


ruling. Ribble Valley MP Nigel Evans, who is


campaigning against the move, met with Mike Arnold, of the Greenhouse Natural Health Store, Longridge, at the House of Commons. Mr Arnold was visiting Lon­ don to protest at the proposed “EU Food Supplements Directive”. It would result in a number pf products


in the UK being withdrawn, simply because they contain nutrients or nutrient sources which are not on the directive’s formal list of permitted ingredients. Speaking from the House of Commons,


Mr Evans said: “I t is a scandal. I have always argued that food supplements, cur­ rently on sale in Britain which are safe and appropriately labelled, should remain available to British consumers. “I fear the consequences of the legisla­

Arnold and actress Jenny Seagrove, who a long-time campaigner for the public’s choice in vitamins, (s)


Rotary says thank you


MORE than £1,000 collected by local Rotarians will help to provide a local dis­ abled person with a holiday to remember. The Rotary Club of Ribblesdale held a


feJ| 11 f-VWSI 6-.i t iV A < a i


collection at Booth’s superstore, in Clitheroe, in November. Thanks to the generosity of customers it raised £1,025. The money will enable a local disabled per­ son, and their carer if necessary, to visit the Calvert Trust Outdoor Adventure Centre, in the Lake District, next spring. Activities there include swimming, climbing, abseil­ ing, canoeing and archery. Rotarian Ted Ashcroft said: “We would


like to express our gratitude to the public for their generosity and to Booth’s for their continued support in our fund-raising.”
