HC Deb 17 January 1989 vol 145 c156W
Mr. Gill

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will monitor the Bacon and Meat Manufacturers Association's mandatory scheme of self-regulation with a view to assessing its relevance to other sections of the food industry.

Mr. Ryder

I am aware of the initiative taken by members of the Bacon and Meat Manufacturers Association to self-regulate their activities. Each other sector of the food industry must, however, judge for itself the relevance of such a scheme.
