HC Deb 07 February 1968 vol 758 cc113-4W
75. Mr. Ridley

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will give the annual sales levels of those soap powders made by Unilever, and Proctor and Gamble, which are advertised and of those which are not, respectively.

Mr. George Darling:

I cannot disclose detailed figures, which are confidential, but the companies inform me that about one-quarter of their sales of heavy duty washing powders are of the less advertised brands.
