Proceeding contribution from David Curry (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 November 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on British Dairies (European Commission).

British Dairies (European Commission)

Does the hon. Lady agree that when the Commission issued a letter of infraction to the British Government, it would have been up to them to contest it? In fact, they have chosen not to do so. They appear to have ordered the Food Standards Agency to issue new instructions on the health processes to fall in line with what the Commission asked for. Does she feel that it would have been more reasonable if the Government had had confidence in the agency to argue the case?
