HC Deb 22 January 1976 vol 903 c575W
Mr. Noble

asked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection what investigations have been carried out by her Department of profit margins on imported textile goods; and with what results.

Mr. Maclennan

None, but the markup on imported products must be accommodated within the ceiling on distributors' overall profit margins under the Price Code. We will consider any detailed observations my hon. Friend may wish to make on this aspect of the controls.
