Oral answer to question provided on Monday, 13 June 2011 in the House of Lords, by Baroness Wilcox (Conservative).


Groceries Code Adjudicator Bill

Answer

My Lords, the Government published the draft Groceries Code Adjudicator Bill on 24 May—that is, they have published draft legislation during the first Session, as they set out to do. The objective is to introduce a final Bill in the second Session, although it could be earlier if we have the opportunity. Of course, the timetable for introducing the final Bill will also be subject to the outcome of the pre-legislative scrutiny.
