Debate

Product Regulation and Metrology Bill [Lords]

Contribution

New clauses 2 to 4 relate to matters where separate legislation already applies. New clause 2 on the prices of goods falls under the Price Marking Order 2004, which includes requirements for unit pricing to be clearly labelled. There are developments in this area. The Competition and Markets Authority published a report in July 2023 on the use of unit pricing in store and online in the groceries sector. Following this, it made recommendations to reform unit pricing legislation and proposed reforms to the Price Marking Order 2004.
