§ Mr. Marlowasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether it is intended, following the entry of Spain and Portugal into the European Community, that Israel should have access to the Community for her agricultural products in any way different from that enjoyed by other Mediterranean non-European Economic Community countries.
§ Mr. GummerThere are a series of agreements with Mediterranean third countries under which the Community allows tariff and other concessions on a wide range of products, including some in the agricultural sector. The differing concessions in these agreements are tailored to the traditional patterns of trade between the Community and each third country. All the agreements are currently being revised. For Israel as for other Mediterranean third countries the intention is to maintain the traditional pattern of trade after enlargement.
