§ Mr. Fauldsasked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection when he expects the introduction of codes of practice for the vehicle, tyre and furniture industries.
§ Mr. John FraserA code of practice for the motor industry came into force on 1st February 1976. I understand that proposals for a code of practice for the tyre trade are under discussion between the Office of Fair Trading and the trade associations concerned. I also understand that the Director General of Fair Trading has reached agreement with trade associations in the furniture industry on a code of practice and that it is expected that the code can be introduced shortly.
