HC Deb 10 July 1978 vol 953 c361W
Mr. Grylls

asked the Secretary of State for Industry, if he will make a statement on the EEC Commission's proposal to form a cartel for synthetic fibres; and when the Council of Ministers will discuss this matter.

Mr. Cryer

The Commmission has not so far put any proposals to the Council for endorsement of the arrangements agreed by EEC synthetic fibre producers. It is, therefore, not possible to say when the matter might be discussed by the Council.
