HC Deb 11 May 1989 vol 152 cc511-2W
Mr. French

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will make a statement on the operation of the Estate Agents Act.

Mr. Forth

I am concluding a review of estate agency. The review has considered the operation of the Estate Agents Act 1979 and in this context I have received advice from the Director General of Fair Trading. I hope to make an announcement shortly.
