HC Deb 29 November 1960 vol 631 c193
31. Mr. Bellenger

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether the factual survey of the tariff decision proposals of the European Economic Community and the European Free Trade Association has been undertaken; and with what result.

Mr. Erroll

An examination of particular difficulties in European trade which may arise from the existence of the European Economic Community and of the European Free Trade Association is being made in Paris by a study group of the Trade Committee of Twenty One. The Group is expected to report before the beginning of the G.A.T.T. tariff negotiations in February.
