HC Deb 19 March 1964 vol 691 c1566
15. Mr. Speir

asked the Secretary of State for Industry, Trade and Regional Development what proposals he has for legislation in the lifetime of the present Parliament upon the basis of the Report of the Departmental Committee on Industrial Design, Cmnd. 1808.

Mr. Heath

None, Sir.

Mr. Speir

In view of the arguments that I have put before my right hon. Friend in a letter on the subject, if and when legislation comes forward will he do his best to ensure that the very important aspect of international reciprocity is given particular consideration?

Mr. Heath

I will, indeed. The Government accept the principal recommendation; of the Committee, but at the moment I cannot give my hon. Friend a clear indication of the date of legislation.
