HC Deb 18 January 1988 vol 145 c236W
Mr. Nelson

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster how many complaints the Office of Fair Trading has received this year about the activities of the Central Selling Organisation for Diamonds operating in London; when he will be replying; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Forth

I understand that the Office of Fair Trading has received two complaints about the activities of the Central Selling Organisation for Diamonds. These are matters for the Director-General of Fair Trading to consider under the competition legislation for which he is responsible.
