HC Deb 14 February 1989 vol 147 cc161-2W
Mr. Waller

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will seek to implement all the recommendations of the Eden committee on the metrological control of equipment for use for trade which the Government accepted in their response dated July 1986.

Mr. Forth

Those recommendations accepted by the Government's response (Cmnd. 9850) to the report of the Eden committee which did not require primary legislation have already been implemented. It remains my Department's intention to introduce legislation to implement the remaining accepted recommendations when parliamentary time is available.
