In the midst of the scandal around processed meat products having different ingredients to the ones identified on the packaging (in some cases horse meat or pork instead of beef), Tesco CEO Phillip Clarke addressed the NFU on the afternoon of 27th February 2013 making specific commitments regarding Tesco’s product sourcing policies.
