Food Fraud

Proceeding contribution from Huw Irranca-Davies (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 September 2014. It occurred during Backbench debate on Food Fraud.

Let me put it back to the hon. Gentleman: when the coalition Government entered office in 2010, one of their first decisions in DEFRA was to split away authenticity testing. At that point, did they think it was appropriate to increase investment in it? We could go back and forth on this issue, but authenticity testing was still happening at that time, even if it had been reduced. I am interested in the detail, but it was continuing.
