§ Mr. Teddy TaylorTo ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster (1) if his Department treats the EEC directive to make illegal the inclusion of items of synthetic food in dolls' houses as falling to be considered by majority vote under the Single European Act; and what is the policy of Her Majesty's Government on this issue;
(2) when the directive was submitted by the EEC Commission to make illegal the inclusion of items of synthetic food in dolls' houses; if the proposal is part of the measures to complete the internal market; and in what form Parliament will be asked to consider the proposals.
§ Mr. ForthI refer my hon. Friend to the answer given on 14 March at column128 to my hon. and learned Friend the Member for Burton (Mr. Lawrence), in which I said that I was proposing to exempt from the proposed Food Imitations (Safety) Regulations imitation food supplied for use in dolls' houses or model scenes or settings.
