Proceeding contribution from Andrew George (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 January 2010. It occurred during Topical debate on Food Industry Competitiveness.


Food Industry Competitiveness

The hon. Gentleman says "albeit belated", but he is quoted as saying this at his party's conference in October:""There needs to be a code of practice properly enforced, but whether that requires a freestanding ombudsman which would be a new bureaucracy is not clear."" It would therefore be fair to say that the change in the Conservative position is also belated.
