Proceeding contribution from Colin Breed (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 7 December 2005. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Supermarket Regulator.
Supermarket Regulator
I welcome this debate and the hon. Gentleman’s suggestion of a regulator. In 1998, I published a report on the supermarkets and quoted from the BBC’s ““The Food Programme””:"““Three growers voiced their anxiety about what they regard as supermarket dictatorship. One thought that supermarket strength is so great, it’s time for the appointment of a regulator.””" That programme was on BBC Radio 4 on 8 March 1998. Does the hon. Gentleman agree that matters have got considerably worse in the past eight years?
