Groceries Code Adjudicator

Quite the opposite. I do not want to add another £1.3 billion to consumers' bills, but to make sure that the supermarkets are not taking £1.3 billion extra in profit from the overall trade when they are not entitled to it. They have used their muscle in the marketplace to drive down the price that they pay producers. To be perfectly honest, I have no sympathy with my hon. Friend's position. Tesco has 32% of the retail trade, and if that is not a huge monopoly position, I will eat my hat.
