HC Deb 19 March 1993 vol 221 cc426-7W
Mrs. Dunwoody

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage if the English tourist board will extend its system of classification for British hotels so as to indicate which serve plated food in their dining rooms.

Mr. Key

The English tourist board has no plans to extend the scope of its accommodation classification and grading schemes at the moment. Whether or not it does so in the future will depend on its assessment of whether such extension is necessary to meet the needs of both the industry and its customers.
