That this House welcomes the new campaign from Skillsmart Retail, the Sector Skills Council for Retail, on Independents' Day which encourages members of the public to buy at least one item from an independent retailer on the day; celebrates diversity on our high street; recognises retail as theUK's largest private sector employer and its importance to the future growth of the economy; and acknowledges the importance of smaller retailers and their employees having easy access to specialist training.
