§ Mr. Gouldasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer on how many occasions his Department has detected the fraudulent importation of textile and clothing products covered by multi-fibre arrangement quotas in the United Kingdom in 1983 and 1984; and what penalties were subsequently imposed on the exporting companies concerned and on the exporting countries concerned.
