Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Caroline Spelman and Ann McKechin

Thursday 26th April 2012 Commons Chamber

[Ann McKechin (Glasgow North) (Lab)]

T9. Farmers across the United Kingdom are looking to the Government to live up to their pledge to legislate for a grocery adjudicator. Can the Secretary of State confirm that she has managed to persuade her colleagues in the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills and the Prime Minister to include this in this year’s Queen’s Speech?

[Mrs Spelman]

Obviously, I cannot tell the hon. Lady what is in the Queen’s Speech, but I invite her to look at the body language of the Deputy Leader of the House as a clear steer that she will not be disappointed.
