§ 19. Mr. Willeyasked the President of the Board of Trade by what amounts the German and Belgian manufacturers of ammonium sulphate have agreed to raise their exports prices consequent upon the consideration of the application for an anti-dumping duty.
§ Mr. MaudlingExporters in both countries have undertaken to increase their export prices to the United Kingdom by £2 10s. per ton.
§ Mr. WilleyDoes the right hon. Gentleman realise that this is not altogether satisfactory? We are here concerned with fertilisers which are subsidised. We have had the Monopolies Commission's Report. We are also desirous of getting farming costs down. Will the right hon. Gentleman keep a very careful eye on any development following these agreements?
§ Mr. MaudlingYes, Sir. I studied this particular case with great care. There is a clearly established margin of dumping here and the additional increase in 1081 price which has been accepted is based upon the dumping margin which has been established.
