HC Deb 17 January 1968 vol 756 cc582-3W
Mr. Harry Howarth

asked the President of the Board of Trade what representations have been made to him regarding the dumping of footwear in the United Kingdom; what reply he has sent; and what further evidence he requested in support of those representations.

Mrs. Gwyneth Dunwoody:

Representations have been received from the Federation of British Rubber and Allied Manufacturers, and we have received other complaints. Following discussions with the Federation, they have provided further information regarding certain grades of rubber footwear imported from certain East European sources, and this is under consideration.
