Mr Ken Purchase (Wolverhampton North East, Labour/Co-operative)
Britain has been ahead of the game on competition law. Recently, we have been the equal of Germany on such law; many other European countries have not, particularly the Italians. It is of no surprise that the Europeans will need more time to implement this protection than we do. It is time for us to take the lead.
It being Five o'clock, The Chairman adjourned the Committee without Question put, pursuant to Order of the Committee [16 April ].
Adjourned till Tuesday 23 April at half-past Ten o'clock.
