HC Deb 12 November 1976 vol 919 c320W
Mr. McCrindle

asked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection (1) if he will refer to the Office of Fair Trading currency and fuel surcharge guarantees on package holiday arrangements;

(2) if he will refer to the Office of Fair Trading the practice of attaching wide exclusion clauses to currency and fuel surcharge guarantees on package holiday arrangements.

Mr. John Fraser

I have seen no evidence to suggest that these arrangements are detrimental to the interests of consumers. If the hon. Member has any evidence to the contrary no doubt he will bring it to the attention of the Director General of Fair Trading who carries out regular monitoring of the code of practice which his office has agreed with the Association of British Travel Agents.
