HC Deb 26 February 1975 vol 887 cc135-6W
55. Sir J. Langford-Holt

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether there are any international obligations which preclude the establishment by the United Kingdom of a standard for car bumpers to which all vehicles built in the United Kingdom shall conform.

Mr. Carmichael

No. But there are practical considerations which are equally potent, as I indicated to the hon. Member in my reply to his Question on 12th February.—[Vol. 886, c.138.]
