Japanese Motor Vehicles (Tariff Barriers) (Hansard, 19 June 1972)

HC Deb 19 June 1972 vol 839 c13W 13W

§ Mr. Woodhouse
asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will impose tariff barriers and other restrictions on the import of Japanese-made motor vehicles into the United Kingdom, identical with those imposed by the Japanese Government on British-made motor vehicles.

§ Mr. Noble
No. Japanese duties on motor vehicles are broadly at lower rates than our own and there are no import restrictions other than conformity with local safety specifications.
