Chapter 12 in Intervention in the Modern UK Brewing Industry, 2012, pp 139-151 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The Beer Orders were not fully operational until November 1992, but even before then there had been mounting disquiet about the initial impact of the measures. As we have seen, such doubts had surfaced in Parliament as early as June 1991, when Stan Crowther MP put down an Early Day Motion (EDM) bemoaning the disruption to the licensed trade.1 He hadn’t left it at that, securing an Adjournment Debate in November, in which he lambasted the Beer Orders,2 and following this up with another EDM, calling for their immediate review.3 Crowther was primarily concerned with the position of tenants in a rapidly changing world, but he also lamented what he saw as the impact on consumers in the shape of rocketing prices and reduced competition.
