HC Deb 15 May 1975 vol 892 cc180-1W
Mr. Hooley

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if he will list in the Official Report those sensitive manufactures on which tariff quotas are applied by the EEC under the Lomé Convention and the ACP countries which are the main suppliers of these sensitive goods.

Mr. Deakins

The only ACP manufacture for which there will be tariff quotas is rum. The principal ACP suppliers are the Bahamas, Guyana, Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago. The quota arrangements will ensure that these countries' traditional duty-free access to the United Kingdom market will be fully safeguarded.
