HC Deb 13 April 1981 vol 3 cc6-7W
Mr. Grylls

asked the Secretary of State for Trade whether he has received evidence from United Kingdom manufacturers of low-cost imports of booted roller skates into the European Economic Community from (a) Taiwan and (b) other countries; and if the will make a statement.

Mr. Parkinson

I am aware of some anxiety in the industry at competition from low-cost roller skates from Taiwan. If the industry believes that it is being damaged by unfair competition from dumped or subsidised imports, my Department will be glad to advise on an approach to the Commission for remedial action.
