PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
SUPERMARKET POWER (26 October 2005)

Motion Details

That this House is concerned by the extent of supermarket power and the inability of the Supermarket Code of Practice, and its regulator, the Office of Fair Trading, to prevent short notice supplier delisting, as exemplified by the Ferndale Foods/ASDA case, which has resulted in significant job losses and trade distortion as suppliers are denied fair opportunity to secure alternative customers.
