§ 17. Mr. W. T. Williamsasked the President of the Board of Trade, in view of the growing practice of branded goods manufacturers again to fix retail prices for their goods consequent upon the abolition of price control, what action he will take to see that profit margins will not be imposed which will unduly inflate retail prices.
§ Mr. P. ThorneycroftI have seen no evidence that there has been an increase in the practice of resale price maintenance in respect of those goods from which price controls have been removed.
