HC Deb 15 February 1979 vol 962 c596W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection if he is now able to approve a change in clause 10 of the Hearing Aid Council's code of practice.

Mr. John Fraser

The Hearing Aid Council has requested a change in clause 10 of its code of practice and, having considered the views of interested parties, I have decided to approve the change. The effect of the change is that, as from 1 January 1981, dispensers will no longer be allowed to make home visits to potential customers if the visit has not been specifically requested.
