§ Mr. Adleyasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what steps he is taking to control imports from South Korea and Taiwan; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Alan ClarkThe Government's aim is to obtain real and lasting access to the markets of these countries rather than to restrict access to our own. However, my Department will continue to monitor closely all aspects of our commercial relations including the trend in imports. The Community will be pursuing these matters in the Uruguay round of trade negotiations and has the right to take remedial action under the provisions of the general agreement on tariffs and trade where appropriate.
