49. Mr. Wingfield Digby

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what allowance he made for the 1970 glut in British apples when deciding on the full import of foreign apples after Christmas.

The Government gave full weight to all relevant factors, including the size of the home crop, the consumer interest, and our international trading relations.
