HC Deb 28 March 1928 vol 215 c1184W
Sir J. GRANT

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that the regulations to be issued by the Board of Trade under the Weights and Measures (Amendment) Act, 1926, which would control the sale of petrol from petrol pumps, have not yet been published; if he can give the cause of such delay; and if he can give assurance that action will at once be taken so that the law no longer remain inoperative to the detriment of the motoring public?

Mr. H. WILLIAMS

A provisional draft of these regulations is in the Press, and will shortly be published, in order that the views of the various interests concerned may be considered before the final code in drawn up.
