Proceeding contribution from Lord Prior of Brampton (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Friday, 8 July 2016. It occurred during Debate on bill on Bread and Flour Regulations (Folic Acid) Bill [HL].


Bread and Flour Regulations (Folic Acid) Bill [HL]

I will in a minute but will just finish this point. That is not to say that the Government have no role—far from it—just that the role is different. It is to inform, to educate, to persuade, to nudge, to incentivise, to influence and to cajole but not, I would argue, to dictate, except in the most extreme and difficult circumstances.
