§ 41. Mr. Jannerasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what representations he has received from solvent retailers concerning the voluntary code agreed in December.
§ Mr. John PattenReports on the operation of the trade's voluntary guidelines on restraint on sales of solvent based products have been received from a number of organisations representing retailers.
The reports indicate that the guidelines have been very widely distributed and have generally been well received, that they have brought about increased awareness of the need for care in selling solvent-based products, that stricter security is being maintained in retail outlets and that use of the guidelines is being made in staff training.
