HC Deb 07 December 1970 vol 808 c31W
Mr. Mudd

asked the Secretary of. State for Trade and Industry if he will consider imposing a more flexible timing of import controls to avoid imports, particularly of horticultural produce, clashing with domestic production peaks, bearing in mind that production peaks in Cornwall are some considerable time in advance of those for the rest of the United Kingdom.

Mr. Noble

As I informed my hon. Friend the Member for Blackpool, South (Mr. Blaker) on 30th November, certain seasonal limitations are already imposed. I do not consider that any changes are needed at present either for imports from the Eastern area or elsewhere.—[Vol. 807, c. 249.]
