§ 30. Mr. BurgonTo ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what steps his Department has taken to make it easier for United Kingdom consumers to buy cars from elsewhere in the EU. [71628]
§ Dr. HowellsThe Department seeks to ensure that all infringements of EC competition law which restrict imports of cars into the UK are vigorously pursued by the European Commission. We welcome the establishment of manufacturers' hotlines which will make it easier for consumers to purchase cars elsewhere in the EU. We have placed a list of the numbers for use of UK consumers in the House of Commons Library.
