HC Deb 20 December 1966 vol 738 cc244-5W
55. Mr. Wingfield Digby

asked the Minister of Technology what progress he is making towards assisting companies to meet conflicting national standards in United Kingdom export industries, which at present necessitate different designs for different markets.

Mr. Benn

The Government, with the full support of industry and the British Standards Institution, are endeavouring to ensure that all national standards embody without deviation the recommendation of the appropriate international and European standards bodies.
