HC Deb 12 February 1963 vol 671 c154W
74 and 75. Mr. Proudfoot

asked the President of the Board of Trade (1) if he will make an all-round unilateral cut in tariffs;

(2) if he will make such selective unilateral tariff cuts as will make less efficient industries more competitive in world markets.

Mr. Green

The tariff is, of course, an important instrument affecting the competitive position of industry and we shall have this in mind in discussions with our E.F.T.A. partners and in the forthcoming Kennedy round.
