HL Deb 20 November 1986 vol 482 c430WA
Lord Campbell of Alloway

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What form they expect the code of practice provided for in Clause 26 of the Consumer Protection Bill to take.

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department of Trade and Industry (Lord Lucas of Chilworth)

We have had wide-ranging consultations with interested parties on successive drafts of a code of practice on price indications. Copies of the latest draft of the code, which take account of the comments we have so far received, have today been placed in the Libraries of both Houses. There will be opportunities for further consultation on the code before it is formally approved.
