§ Mr. Lomasasked the President of the Board of Trade when he proposes to introduce legislation to ensure that all weights and measures are standard and marked accordingly.
§ Mr. DarlingLegislation is not needed. My right hon. Friend already has powers under the 1963 Weights and Measures Act to add other commodities to the many classes of goods which the Act requires to be sold only in specified quantities, or to he pre-packed only if the container is marked with a quantity marking.
