Garages and Car Parks (Vehicle Liability)

HC Deb 29 November 1971 vol 827 cc16-7W

Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he will introduce legislation to ban or to render void clauses in contracts with garages or car parks which seek to exclude liability for loss of or damage to vehicles or to their contents.

Mr. Ridley

Exclusion of liability in contracts for the supply of services is at present being studied by the Law Commissions. Consideration of legislation must await their advice.
