§ Mr. Anthony GrantThe former Administration gave an undertaking to the Romanian Government that in the event of their placing in the United Kingdom a contract for an irrigation project in Romania. and because the conclusion of such a contract would indicate a continuing high level of exports generally to Romania, certain agricultural and horticultural quotas would be increased by a total annual value of £1 million. 429W We felt it right that we should honour that commitment and the Romanian Government were so informed.
