HC Deb 16 June 1972 vol 838 cc441-2W
Sir J. Langford-Holt

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry why no decision about the application for

retirement pension as compared with indices on the same basis for average male earnings in manufacturing industry and retail prices.

Mr. Dean

The information is given in the following table:

anti-dumping duty on imports of urea has yet been made; and, as this application was published by his Department in October, 1971, and in view of the harm caused by the delay in reaching a decision, whether he will now act.

Mr. Emery

This application has involved imports from six different countries and the necessary investigations have taken some time in order to ensure that they were both fair and thorough. The Department expects to be able to announce its decision soon.
