Pig Meat (Imports from Eastern Europe)

HC Deb 02 December 1965 vol 721 c231W

56. Mr. Bessell

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will restrict the imports of pig meat from countries in Eastern Europe, in view of the damage this is causing to the economy of British farming.

Mr. Darling

No. Imports of bacon from these countries are already governed by the Bacon Market Sharing Understanding and imports of other pig meat products are subject to quota.
