HC Deb 22 June 1966 vol 730 c89W
100. Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he is aware of the need to continue the ban on the export of meat to the Continent for at least two months after the end of the seamen's strike; and whether he will take action to ensure this.

Mr. John Mackie

The ban will be continued for as long as is necessary to deal with the situation caused by the seamen's strike. I cannot say now what this period will be.
