HC Deb 28 November 1962 vol 668 c66W
Mr. Webster

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, what steps are being taken to ensure an adequate inspection force for horticultural imports, under Article 2 of Regulation 23 on the Progressive Establishment of a Common Organisation of the Market in Fruit and Vegetables, made under the Treaty of Rome.

Mr. Soames

At this stage of the negotiations my Department cannot go beyond giving the fullest consideration to all the problems of inspection that would arise if we accede to the Community, and this is being done.
