§ Mr. Stan Crowtherasked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection if he will consider introducing legislation to protect caravan owners against excessive increases in plot rental charges.
§ Mr. John Fraser:I am still considering possible legislation to protect the owners of holiday caravans. I have also invited the industry to deal with abuses itself. To this end my Department has been in touch with the National Federation of Site Operators and the National Caravan Council, which will now I hope take speedy and effective action. In the meantime, I welcome the willingness of these bodies to investigate and endeavour to resolve complaints against their members.
