British Agriculture and Food Labelling

Proceeding contribution from David Drew (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 February 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on British Agriculture and Food Labelling.
I pay due tribute to my friend in this regard, the hon. Member for St. Ives (Andrew George). The Competition Commission inquiry into the grocery trade was hamstrung by the unwillingness of suppliers to give evidence, even in camera. That indicates the unfairness of the system. All parties ought to be standing up to the supermarkets to get greater fairness and a genuinely level playing field. I hope that the hon. Gentleman would agree to that.
