Bill: Decentralise Food Safety Policy
Details
Submitted by[?]: Liberale Partij (L)
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: April 2595
Description[?]:
| In a rider bill that can only be described as *errant* the national government shifted the responsibility for Food Safety Policy away from local governments and towards the central government. This legislation purports to undo that mistake. Agricultural policy in this country is mostly crafted on the local level, and food safety policy is an important part of the food chain. The Hutori Liberal-Royalist party wants an integrated food-agri policy and we believe this policy should be crafted at the State level. |
Proposals

Proposal[?] to change Food safety policy.
Old value:: The government introduces, and actively enforces, food standards provisions.
Current: The government introduces, and actively enforces, food standards provisions.
