Proceeding contribution from Lord Young of Cookham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 September 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
The whole House will have been sorry to hear of the loss of life of the toddler in my hon. Friend's constituency. I believe that there are restrictions on the materials that can be used in many items of furniture. However, I will raise the instance that the hon. Gentleman has given with the Under-Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, the hon. Member for Kingston and Surbiton (Mr Davey), who is responsible for consumer affairs, and see whether there are any further steps that we can take to avoid a repetition of the tragedy.
