My question is again to the Prime Minister about Spotlight’s AWA. I refer to a statement today by Mr Patrick McKendry, the Chief Executive of the National Retail Association, about Spotlight’s AWA. I quote:

Far from being defensive about it, the National Retail Association applauds it because we think a lot of other retailers will follow Spotlight’s lead.

Why doesn’t the Prime Minister just fess up to the start of his 2c an hour race to the bottom?
