HC Deb 19 February 1997 vol 290 c593W
30. Mr. Charles Kennedy

To ask the President of the Board of Trade when he last discussed petrol pricing with the Office of Fair Trading; and if he will make a statement. [15053]

Mr. John M. Taylor

Neither I nor my current ministerial colleagues have discussed petrol pricing with the Director General of Fair Trading. My right hon. and noble Friend the Minister for Energy set out the Government's position on petrol retailing to the Trade and Industry Select Committee last year.
