Agriculture (South-West)

Proceeding contribution from David Heath (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 January 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Agriculture (South-West).
I agree with my hon. Friend up to a point. We need to look at the whole chain of supply—I am trying not to pre-empt myself by saying something that I intend to say later—because the processors are often caught in exactly the same difficulty as the primary producers in their relationship with the retailers. The real strength in the commercial relationship lies with the retailers and the oligopoly that the major supermarkets constitute in this country. I shall come back to that.
