HC Deb 20 January 1989 vol 145 c330W
Sir Richard Body

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if there have been any further EEC Commission reports on the integration of consumer policy in the other common policies since the submission to the EEC Council of COM(87)616 final; on what occasions since December 1987 the EEC Council has discussed this topic; what conclusions were reached; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Forth

At its last meeting, on 7 June 1988, the Consumer Council considered the Commission's first report (COM(87)616 final) on progress towards implementation of the 1986 resolution on taking the consumer interest into account in other policy areas. The council agreed conclusions which called on the Commission to step up its efforts and to report further to the council by June 1989.
