HC Deb 02 December 1964 vol 703 cc68-9W
Mr. Brian Harrison

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will arrange for the removal of the 15 per cent. surcharge on briar stocks being imported into this country, in order further to encourage the home production of roses.

Mr. Hoy

No. I do not think the temporary import charge will have any discouraging effect on home production of roses.
