HC Deb 27 March 1972 vol 834 c12W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will list in the Official Report the names of the antibiotics and other drugs in developing countries, together with the countries of origin, which will be admitted to the United Kingdom duty free under the scheme which came into operation on 1st January.

Mr. Anthony Grant

Under the generalised tariff preference scheme all drugs directly consigned to the United Kingdom from the countries listed in Schedule 1 of the Import Duties (Developing Countries) Order 1971—S.I. 1971 No. 1882—may be admitted into the United Kingdom duty-free if they meet the required origin rules.
