HC Deb 27 April 1984 vol 58 c625W
Mr. McCrindle

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will introduce legislation to amend the Housing Act 1957 covering the resale of electricity by landlords to prevent overcharging of tenants; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Fletcher

My right hon. Friend has no plans at present to do so. My hon. Friend will be aware that the Director-General of Fair Trading has recently issued a consultative document inviting comments by 30 June on this subject.
