§ Mr. Marlowasked the Secretary of State for Trade if he will compare the price of standard saloons in different European Economic Community countries; to what extent it is consistent with the trade practice deriving from the Treaty of Rome; and if he will refer the matter to the European Economic Commission for consideration.
§ Mr. Biffen[pursuant to his reply, 11 February, 1982, c. 443]: No. It is for the European Commission to follow up any evidence of breaches of Community competition rules. The prices charged by manufacturers are a matter for their commercial judgment, acting in accordance with national and Community law.
