Import Controls (Hansard, 31 October 1989)

HC Deb 31 October 1989 vol 159 c141W 141W

§ Q118. Mr. Ken Hargreaves
To ask the Prime Minister whether she has received any requests for import controls to be imposed.

§ The Prime Minister
I have received very few requests to impose import controls. It is the Government's policy to promote free and fair trade and it is not generally to the United Kingdom's advantage to impose import restrictions.
