British Airports Authority (Duty-free Goods) (Hansard, 1 March 1971)

HC Deb 01 March 1971 vol 812 c305W 305W

§ 57. Mr. Wall
asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will issue a general direction to prevent the British Airports Authority from making further price rises on duty-free goods.

§ Mr. Noble
No. Even if this subject were appropriate to a general direction it would not be in the national interest to restrict the authority's export earnings.
