asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he will hold an inquiry into the current practice of some bedding manufacturers of double pricing, thereby enabling buyers to be deceived and the provisions of the Trade Descriptions Act, 1968, to be contravened; and whether he will make a statement.

Although the hon. and learned Member has been good enough to send me a copy of the letter which prompted his Question, I am not clear what particular practice is causing concern. I will write to him about this.
