HC Deb 29 July 1976 vol 916 c399W
Mr. John Garrett

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if reductions in footwear imports from Comecon countries have taken place in accordance with the agreement between Her Majesty's Government and the Governments of those countries.

Mr. Meacher

Czechoslovakia, Poland and Romania have agreed to restrain their exports of leather footwear, excluding sandals, in 1976 to the levels of their exports in 1975. The information available about imports so far gives me no reason to believe that these undertakings will not be honoured.
