- Title
Parliament, Boards and Autonomy: The Case of Agricultural Marketing Boards.
- Authors
Giddings, Philip
- Abstract
The article discusses the parliament accountability and autonomy of agricultural marketing boards in Great Britain. The institutional background of the marketing board is discussed. There are two basic elements to the institutional framework in which the boards operate: the dominant one of producer control/self-government and the more subtle one of a publicly-controlled environment. The legislative opportunities and parliamentary concerns relating to marketing boards is presented. Evidences of the parliamentary in relation to marketing boards are elaborated. It is clear that the evidence from parliament does not give a precise picture of the relative responsibilities of minister and board in the case of agricultural marketing boards.
