HC Deb 11 July 1979 vol 970 c199W
Mr. Michael McGuire

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if he will take the necessary steps to stop petrol station owners displaying petrol priced at fractions of less than 0.5 of a penny.

Mrs. Sally Oppenheim

No, because I understand this practice is becoming rare and there are a number of significant technical difficulties which preclude such action at present. However, I shall keep the situation under review.
