Proceeding contribution from Martin Horwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 January 2012. It occurred during Backbench debate on Pub Companies.


Pub Companies

I believe that Members can welcome the positive steps that the Minister has announced but still believe that they do not really tackle the key issues, which are not about compliance and competition but, as the debate has shown, more about the relationship between struggling small businesses and big pubcos. If we are to have one last drink in the last chance saloon, what time scale will he now unambiguously put on the self-regulatory regime before statutory action is taken?
