§ Mr. Proctorasked the Secretary of State for Industry if he will seek from the Clothing Industry Productivity Resources Agency information as to the number of inquiries it has referred to the organisations and of the work which has resulted therefrom.
§ Mr. MacGregorThere is little I can add to the answer given to my hon. Friend on 19 March—[Vol. 1, c. 164.] I would not regard it as reasonable to except CIPRA, with its limited resources, to record and follow up every telephone and other inquiry.
§ Mr. Proctorasked the Secretary of State for Industry, if he will seek to ensure that the Clothing Industry Productivity Resources Agency does not take on assignments which can be carried out by outside organisations.
§ Mr. MacGregorCIPRA only takes on assignments which it considers it is competent to carry out. It would 27W not be reasonable to seek to limit CIPRA'S ability to earn income which reduces its dependence on Government support.
