HC Deb 26 July 1955 vol 544 c117W
Mr. B. Harrison

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will retain a tariff of 4d. per lb. on imported tomatoes until the end of October in order to assist the grower of outdoor tomatoes to market his crop.

Mr. P. Thorneycroft

No. The duties on tomatoes were increased in December, 1953, and I have no reason to suppose that the new duties are not adequate.
