HL Deb 03 July 1990 vol 520 c2086WA
Lord Graham of Edmonton

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether the views of multiple retailers are adequately represented on the reconstituted Potato Marketing Board.

Baroness Trumpington

The Potato Marketing Board has set up a new joint consultative committee, on which the multiple retailers are represented, in response to the Government's requirement that consumer and other non-producer interests should be given greater influence in market management. I believe that all those connected with the production and marketing of potatoes are content with their representation on the committee.
