HC Deb 21 April 1993 vol 223 c117W
32. Mr. Purchase

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what plans he has to outlaw downpayments on the signing of timeshare contracts following the meeting of the EC Consumer Council on 2 March.

Mr. Leigh

I have no such plans. A ban on clown payments in timeshare contracts before the end of any cooling-off period is, however, among the proposals being discussed in the context of the negotiation of the draft timeshare directive.
