§ 60. Mr. ThurnhamTo ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what effect he expects there to be on industry from the controls on chlorofluorocarbon production and consumption; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. AtkinsBecause of the wide variety of uses to which chlorofluorocarbons are put, the effects of the controls will vary for both producers and industrial consumers depending on the precise products and applications involved. Market forces should encourage the development of alternative technologies, products and processes.
The controls represent both a challenge and an opportunity to which industry is already making positive responses.
