Charters (Sanctions)

HC Deb 14 December 1992 vol 216 cc16-7W

36. Mr. Harry Greenway

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what general sanctions will apply when charters are broken; if he will make a statement.

Mr. Robert Jackson

All charters include information about what to do if things go wrong. Compensation may be payable in some cases, but in others alternative forms of redress may be more appropriate.
