I move amendment No. 47:

In page 80, line 18, to delete "€50 million" and substitute "€10 million".

The supply chain in the groceries sector has become increasingly complicated. The Bill as it stands would exclude many of those involved in the supply chain who deal with producers. In many cases, wholesalers deal directly with producers, and the various supermarkets deal with wholesalers. This amendment seeks to give maximum protection to producers and ensure commercial arrangements between producers and wholesalers are subject to the protections of this Bill.
