53. Mr. Chichester-Clark

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will make a statement regarding his talks with the officers of the British Antique Dealers' Association regarding methods of trading in antique goods.

My consultations with this and other bodies in relation to practices at auctions are still proceeding. The British Antique Dealers' Association have recently reaffirmed to me that all their members have signed an undertaking not to take part in knock-out agreements.
