§ Mr. Stottasked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection if she will take steps designed to ensure 450W that the brewing companies reintroduce traditional draught beer in areas where they have enforced a keg-only monopoly, in the interest of consumer protection.
§ Mr. Strang: I have beenasked to reply.
The Food Standards Committee is at present carrying out a full review of beer, and we shall consider whether any action is needed in the light of its report, but the range of beers sold by the brewing companies is essentially a matter for commercial judgment.
