§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, in view of the danger and suffering caused to blind persons with guide dogs where the banger type of fireworks are let off, he will secure powers to ban the manufacture and sale of this type of firework.
§ Mr. SharplesWhile my right hon. Friend sympathises with those who are alarmed or annoyed by the discharge of such fireworks, he is not persuaded that a case has been made out for amendment of the law on the lines proposed by the hon. Member.
