Speaking in the House of Lords on 30 June 2025

Debate

Marking of Retail Goods Regulations 2025

Contribution

The noble Lord, Lord Empey, asked about businesses passing on costs to consumers. I confirm again that this is a power of last resort that we will introduce only where the evidence deems it necessary to safeguard the supply of retail goods into Northern Ireland, to maintain consumer choice for the people of Northern Ireland and to protect the UK internal market.
