Grocery Market Ombudsman Bill
Prayers

John Penrose (Shadow Minister (Business Enterprise and Regulatory Reform), Business; Weston-Super-Mare, Conservative)
I apologise for butting in on the hon. Gentleman so early in his speech, but I want to back up the point that he was making in response to that last intervention. Does he agree that it would be inappropriate to use an ombudsman to stick up for the oil companies, many of which are larger than the supermarkets concerned? There might be an issue of the kind that has just been discussed, but an ombudsman would be the wrong way to deal with it.
