§ 21. Mr. W. Hamiltonasked the Lord Advocate what recent representations he has received concerning unfair trading practices, details of which have been sent to him by the hon. Member for West Fife; and, in view of the continuing hardship to consumers, if he will introduce legislation to protect consumers in this respect.
§ The Lord AdvocateThe only recent representations which I have received on this matter were contained in a letter from the hon. Member for Fife, West (Mr. W. Hamilton) which was in general terms and gave no details of any specific cases of hardship. I have received no evidence to suggest that further legislation on the matter raised by the hon. Member in his letter is called for.
