This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Petition Make the Government cut V.A.T on "ethical" products.
We the undersigned are demanding that the government promise that once we have left the EU and have control over a V.A.T, products which can be considered "ethical" shall have a V.A.T cut in order to make them more affordable for people and families in the U.K.
More details
They could be products which:
- in their production cause no harm to the environments they are produced in,
- no harm is caused to any animals which are part of the products production,
- all parties who help create the product are paid a fair and decent amount in return for their work.
Examples of products like these would be free-range eggs or FairTrade products.
With this, the general public will be more inclined to buy these, as they will be more affordable.
