HC Deb 04 June 1997 vol 295 cc193-4W
24. Mr. Luff

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will make a statement on his policy towards deregulation. [545]

Dr. David Clark

Our aim is to create the economic conditions in which business can flourish. We want to modernise Government for business—particularly small firms—and citizens. That is why we have undertaken to cut unnecessary red tape and not to impose burdensome new regulations.
