HC Deb 01 August 1984 vol 65 c264W
Mrs. Rumbold

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what measures of deregulation his Department has achieved during the year 1983–84; and what his plans are for 1984–85.

Mr. Butler

Opportunities to introduce distinct deregulation measures in Northern Ireland are limited, but two minor measures have been introduced. Appropriate measures taken by other United Kingdom Departments will be applied in the Province as opportunity offers.
