HC Deb 23 May 1972 vol 837 c344W
Mr. Carter-Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will make a statement on the representations he has received asking for the replacement of the Consumer Council.

Mr. Noble

I am aware that various ideas have been put forward for new bodies to protect the consumer, but there have been very few representations of late calling for a body comparable to the former Consumer Council.
