§ Mr. Gwynoro Jonesasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what plans he has to secure further agreements with other countries in general and Eastern European countries in particular on the lines of that reached with the Romanian Government on increasing Romanian quotas of agricultural and horticultural products.
§ Mr. NobleThe quantitative restrictions which we maintain on imports of agricultural and horticultural products, including those from Eastern Europe, are reviewed annually in consultation, where appropriate, with the Governments concerned.
