lITAIN'S commercial hide industry was criticised, -it week, for not taking every portunity to compete and vertise its products.
Opening Trafex 77 in icester, on Friday, the Duke Rutland said he was rprised and disappointed at lack of British products on 'Even though we have a high reputation for the manufacture of heavy goods and public service vehicles, we have to admit that, in the eyes of the world, our troubled motor industry has no such reputation," said the Duke.
He added that he would have thought the industry would have taken opportunities such as Trafex to advertise its products. The Duke called on EEC officials to use their commonsense to see that regulations made by the community made sense and were flexible.
Trafex was organised by the Institute of Traffic Administration to run simultaneously with its conference at the Grand Hotel, Leicester.
