The commission said that its Emerging Thinking Document, due this month, would instead be published in January.
A spokesperson for the CC told just-food: “Even after this bit of slippage, we are still six or seven months ahead of schedule.”
There will also be subsequent one-month backlogs for the provisional finding report and the final report, which is now due in November 2007.
“As you’ll know we have received a huge response to this inquiry and obviously Christmas/New Year means that publishing towards the end of the month would not be desirable. As we said at the start, we’ve quite deliberately set a challenging schedule for this inquiry and this revised timetable would still see us finish well in advance of the statutory deadline,” the commission said.
