§ Mr. Greenwayasked the Minister for Trade what information he has as to the number of garages which sell petrol by the litre only against those selling only by the gallon; and if he will make a statement.

The voluntary changeover has been slower than the industry expected; this may be due to petrol prices remaining at a level which enables many pumps to continue in use without modification.
