HC Deb 27 October 1967 vol 751 cc574-5W
Mr. David Howell

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what steps he is taking to expedite the export of restricted varieties of seed.

Mr. John Mackie

The Department does not restrict the export of seed from the United Kingdom. Steps to secure the removal of restrictions on plant varieties imposed by other countries include giving support to arrangements for assessing the value of British varieties in official trials overseas.
