§ 9. Sir R. Russellasked the President of the Board of Trade if, in view of the acceptance by the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade of a waiver allowing developing countries to make preferential tariff arrangements, he will apply to have the waiver extended to developed 399 countries, and between developed and developing countries.
§ Mrs. Gwyneth DunwoodyNo general waiver in the G.A.T.T. allowing developing countries to make preferential tariff arrangements has been given.
§ Sir R. RussellIs not the hon. Lady aware that arrangements appear to have been made between India, the U.A.R., and Yugoslavia for preferential arrangements, and have not these received a G.A.T.T. waiver?
§ Mrs. DunwoodyI think the hon. Gentleman will accept that what was considered was the five year agreement, but it was decided that a final decision would be given in the 1969 Session.
