§ Mr. Formanasked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection when the Government expect to bring forward legislation to deal with the regulation of estate agency; and whether she will now make a statement.
§ Mr. John FraserMy Department is giving careful consideration to the comments received and is in the process of having meetings with a number of representative bodies to consider those comments further. It is too early to give a firm indication on timing, but I would hope to introduce legislation as soon as parliamentary time permits.
