HC Deb 27 July 1977 vol 936 c241W
Mr. Grylls

asked the Secretary of State for Industry, further to his reply to the hon. Member for Surrey, North-West on 17th November, what action has been taken following the recommendation from the sector working party on the electrical engineering industry that the Government should make a commitment towards a more stable home market for domestic electrical appliances.

Mr. Alan Williams

The Government have made it clear to the domestic electrical appliance industry on a number of occasions that they recognise the need for a stable home market for the industry and that this need will be borne in mind when the Government are formulating their fiscal policies.
