Proceeding contribution from Patricia Gibson (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 11 June 2019. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Consumer Protection.


Consumer Protection

Forgive me if the Minister has said this already and I have missed it, but given that the powers of the OPSS are to be strengthened, will there be an increase in personnel to support trading standards, and will the OPSS itself receive additional money—apart from the £12 million that it received when it was set up?
