§ 54. Mr. Stonehouseasked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been drawn to the "Panorama" programme of the British Broadcasting Corporation television on 26th January, which dealt with the misleading advertising of reconditioned machines at low prices for the purpose of switch selling and which shows the extent of public disquiet regarding these practices; and whether he will ask the British Broadcasting Corporation to make available to his Department the further complaints received from consumers as a result of this programme for the purpose of the inquiry now being conducted.
§ Sir D. EcclesThe answer to both parts of the Question is Yes.
