Lars Barfoed

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lars Barfoed (born July 4, 1957) is a Danish politician representing the Conservative People's Party. He served as Minister of Family and Consumption from February 18, 2005 to December 14, 2006.

A report from Rigsrevisionen had criticized the food quality inspections which is his ministry's responsibility, as well as the information which Barfoed had passed on to Folketinget about the problems. The Danish People's Party announced that it no longer had confidence in him on December 13, meaning that there no longer was a majority in the Folketing supporting Barfoed. Barfoed resigned his office the same day with effect from December 14.[1]
