Television Tubes and Sets

HC Deb 10 February 1976 vol 905 cc159-60W

Mr. Rooker

asked the Secretary of State for Trade what progress he has made with the introduction of surveillance licensing of imports of television tubes and sets as announced on 17th December 1975.

Mr. Shore

Surveillance licensing of such imports from non-EEC sources was introduced on 17th January. I am advised that this licensing procedure cannot be applied to imports from the Community and I am accordingly making alternative arrangements for obtaining the same information.
