Answer from Hansard

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Business and Trade (Justin Madders)

I thank my hon. Friend for her question. The Groceries Code Adjudicator’s annual survey shows high levels of compliance by the supermarkets. However, a statutory review will actually commence next month, and I would encourage her and all stakeholders to contribute to it.
