HC Deb 04 March 1954 vol 524 cc105-6W
67. Mr. Russell

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware of the proposal of the Government of India to abolish the preference on British motor cars and parts; and what representations he is making.

Mr. Amory

Yes. This action is the final stage in the gradual elimination of the preference margin on motor cars and parts to which Her Majesty's Government gave their concurrence during the tariff negotiations held at Geneva in 1947. The second part of the Question does not, therefore, arise.
