§ Sir T. Mooreasked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in connection with the development of East-West trade, he is aware of the difficulties which confront British industry in obtaining 144W complete and accurate information from Eastern European countries to satisfy the requirements of existing anti-dumping legislation; and whether he will take steps to authorise the commercial side of the British embassies in those countries to give more assistance in this field and to augment their staffs for that purpose.
§ Mr. MaudlingThe Board of Trade are always ready to help industries with inquiries into the facts of suspected dumping or subsidisation where industries have difficulty in obtaining these facts themselves and can show some evidence of material injury or the threat of it. I am satisfied that these inquiries can, where necessary, be made quickly under the existing arrangements.
