HC Deb 17 February 1975 vol 886 cc294-5W
Mr. Hall-Davis

asked the Secretary of State for Trade what representations he has received about dumping of textiles in the United Kingdom; what action he has taken; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Deakins

There has been recently only one application for anti-dumping action on textiles, on acrylic yarn imports. As other Community countries are also affected it is being handled by the EEC Commission. I trust that any industry which has evidence that imports are being dumped in this country in sufficient quantity to cause or threaten material injury will not hesitate to present a case under the 1969 anti-dumping Act.
