SUPERMARKET CODE OF PRACTICE (No. 2)

Motion Text

That this House notes with concern the lack of effectiveness of the supermarket code of practice and the effects this has on the UK's smaller high street retailers; further notes that there have been several complaints about supermarkets' dealings with suppliers and some evidence of past breaches of the code of practice; calls on the Office of Fair Trading to collect more evidence of breaches; and urges the Government to appoint a regulator to prevent one player from becoming too dominant.
