I agree with my hon. Friend that the ombudsman is vital. Does he not think that the Government should give powers to the ombudsman so that they can be proactive in carrying out investigations? It is no good just waiting for complaints to come in. Many people in the sector are concerned that, if they make a complaint, their products could be boycotted, so it is important that the ombudsman has strong proactive powers.
