Consumer Rights Bill

Proceeding contribution from Vincent Cable (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 January 2014. It occurred during Debate on bills on Consumer Rights Bill.

As the hon. Gentleman says, I have discussed that with him before. Indeed, there was a discussion in the European Union last week about rules

of origin legislation. I am very sympathetic. The potteries are reviving somewhat and the ceramics industry is returning, and we want to ensure that that is sustained. I think that the issues raised are somewhat different from the content of the Bill. We might be talking about fraud, trading standards or enforcement, and there is an issue about mandatory origin reporting, which is currently being debated in the European Union. I fear that the Bill’s provisions will probably not help to solve the problem, but those are important issues.
