HC Deb 01 June 1981 vol 5 c234W
37. Mr. Ioan Evans

asked the Secretary of State for Trade what further action he proposes to protect the consumer.

Mrs. Sally Oppenheim

The record of the Government over the past two years shows we are very ready to take steps to help the consumer both through strengthening competition and in other ways. I have a number of measures in train and will take further action as that proves necessary and practicable.
