——in terms of surveys and submissions, including one regarding the groceries order. There were several campaigns on the empowerment of consumers, of which the Deputy would have been notified. There was a distribution to households as part of an effective "Know Your Rights" campaign, which indicated to consumers their rights and entitlements under existing law. The agency had an input into the formulation of new legislation, particularly the transposition of EU directives and the types of powers and roles the agency should have under the new consumer law.

There were other campaigns and I will send the specifics to the Deputy.
