§ Sir Geoffrey Johnson Smithasked the Minister for Trade what steps he proposes to take to change the regulations regarding aerial advertising; and when he proposes to make these changes.

As regards the timing of this change, I regret that I have nothing to add to the answer I gave to my hon. Friend the Member for Southend, East (Mr. Taylor) on 17 January.—[Vol. 35, c.68.]
