HC Deb 27 July 1967 vol 751 c261W
Mr. Whitaker

asked the President of the Board of Trade what steps he is taking to implement the Monopolies Commission's recommendations on the price of soap flakes.

Mr. Jay

Soap flakes and liquid detergents were excluded from the arrangements I made with Unilever and Procter and Gamble, because consumers already have a wide choice of alternative soap flakes and liquid detergents, the prices of which reflect lower selling expenses.
