§ Mr. Kilroy-Silkasked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection if she will list the local consumer advice centres now operating, and to be opened, on Merseyside.
Mr. Alan WilliamsAccording to the latest information available to me, purpose-built consumer advice centres are operating in Liverpool, Wallasey and Bootle. A further centre is operating from the trading standards office in St. Helens until a permanent site can be obtained. There is also a mobile unit offering a country-wide service. During the next year, a new centre is expected to be opened in Southport.
