HC Deb 13 July 1977 vol 935 c149W
Mr. Austin Mitchell

asked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection whether the nitrophenylesdiamine group of chemicals will be required to be shown on all product labels; and, if so, when.

Mr. John Fraser

I am not at present contemplating any such requirement. If current research shows that these chemicals are harmful, the need for appropriate action will of course be considered.

Mr. Austin Mitchell

asked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection how many patented hair dyes contain nitrophenylesdiamines in their formulae.

Mr. John Fraser

I regret that this information is not available.
