Groceries Code Adjudicator Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Mark Tami (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 26 February 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Groceries Code Adjudicator Bill [Lords].

The hon. Gentleman is talking about very large companies, but does he accept that some smaller companies are almost totally reliant on the supermarkets for their business, and whatever the supermarket says goes? Does he also accept that one thing that we have to recognise from the horsemeat scandal is that if we keep driving prices down, some suppliers will look to cut costs by whatever means they can in order to survive?
