"I did feel misled. I think a halal option should be made available," the Daily Mail quoted Lord Ahmed of Rotherham, as saying.
In 2010, the paper revealed schools, hospitals and restaurants were serving halal meat to unwitting customers.
According to the report popular fast-food chains including Domino's Pizza, Pizza Hut, KFC, Nando's and Subway are also using halal meat without telling customers.
Members of the Church of England have complained that the spread of halal meat was 'effectively spreading Sharia law' across the UK.
Alison Ruoff, a member of the Church of England, however pointed out that 'it is a bit hypocritical that the Houses of Parliament, which have allowed other people to provide halal food, have ruled it out on their ownpremises.'(ANI)
