HC Deb 02 March 1967 vol 742 c149W
Mr. Gregory

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has yet investigated the possibilities of extending categorisation under the global quota system; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. J. P. W. Mallalieu

Any proposal to extend categorisation would therefore reopen discussion of the whole control system, and I am sure that this would not be to the industry's advantage.
