answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/12/2017 answer text <p>The UK has long supported the promotion of our values globally and this will continue as we leave the EU. The UK government’s position on the hunting of cetaceans is clear; we remain strongly opposed to it and strongly support the global moratorium on commercial whaling. We have committed publically on a number of occasions to raising the UK’s opposition to whaling with the relevant nations at every appropriate opportunity. We are exploring all options in the design of future bilateral trade and investment agreements and we want to ensure economic growth and environmental protection go hand-in-hand.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Chelsea and Fulham answering member printed Greg Hands question first answered 12/12/2017 15:50:29 answering member 1526 label Biography information for Greg Hands
