Proceeding contribution from Ann McKechin (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 January 2012. It occurred during Backbench debate on Pub Companies.

Pub Companies

My hon. Friend is very generous in allowing me to intervene. Does he share my concern that the key difference between a statutory code and a self-regulated one is that under a self-regulated code if a pub should be sold by the landlord to another company that was not a member of the said trade association, the tenant would have no rights, as currently provided under the code, whereas under a statutory code they would have rights?
