HC Deb 23 July 1964 vol 699 cc118-9W
50. Sir B. Janner

asked the Secretary of State for Industry, Trade and Regional Development whether he is aware that coercive measures are being taken against British firms, companies, directors, and others who trade with a friendly nation, Israel, to prevent them from continuing such trade; and what steps Her Majesty's Government will take to prevent such measures.

Mr. Heath

Yes. As I told the hon. Member on 12th December last, Her Majesty's Government are strongly opposed to interference of this sort. We have repeatedly made known our views on this subject.
