HC Deb 10 July 1975 vol 895 cc271-2W
Mr. Adam Butler

asked the Secretary of State for Trade what is the latest position in the negotiations under the multi-fibre agreement with textile exporting countries in the Far East; what arrangements have been concluded and which are still in process; and if he will detail the countries and types of goods involved.

Mr. Deakins

An agreement with Pakistan has been initialled. Agreement has been reached in Brussels on a mandate for negotiations with Japan. Community arrangements for restricting imports from Taiwan are to be adopted very shortly. Otherwise the situation remains as in the reply which I gave to the hon. Member on 23rd May.
