HC Deb 08 August 1972 vol 842 c337W
Mr. Sproat

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether the tariff concessions on fish provided for in the recent agreement between the European Economic Community and Iceland will not be put into effect until the dispute between Iceland and the United Kingdom is satisfactorily settled; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

We have an absolute assurance that the Community will only apply the concessions on fish if there is a solution which satisfies all member and acceding States, and which is a continuing one.
