What can MPs and Peers do to help?
A. Of particular importance right now is the setting of dose levels. MPs must continue to write to the Minister (Ms Caroline Flint MP) expressing the concerns of their constituents. MPs must stress that large numbers of consumers are anxious and distressed at the thought of losing their higher dose vitamins and minerals, and the Minister needs to continue discussions in EU to find a way out. At the same time, MPs must convince their own parties MEPs to write a letter to the Commissioner (Markos Kyprianou) stressing that the Commission MUST base levels on safety only and that we should all be allowed to use higher doses, provided they are safe, properly manufactured and correctly labelled.
