HC Deb 20 March 1975 vol 888 c535W
Mr. Marten

asked the Secretary of State for Trade what is now the average common external tariff of the Common Market.

Mr. Shore

About 8½ per cent. for industrial goods. It is not possible to compute an average for non-industrial goods, many of which are subject to variable levies in place of, or in addition to, customs duties.
