lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, the production of palm oil has resulted in deforestation across Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia and parts of Africa. It is directly responsible for huge swathes of destruction to natural habitats, flora and fauna. It is also completely out of control, with corporates using it in everyday items such as shampoo and doughnuts, and it is now even being proposed for use in United Kingdom banknotes. To take global action on the production of palm oil and mitigate the environmental consequences, it is vital that international commitments are honoured, in particular the United Nations Forum on Forests, the United Nations Convention on Biological Biodiversity, the New York Declaration on Forests and the Sustainable Development Goal to halt deforestation by 2020. The United Kingdom has a record of doing, not just saying, and with Brexit I trust this will set an international example for the remaining 27 Member States."@en1
