§ Mr. Hooleyasked the Secretary of State for Trade what tariff barriers currently remain in force against the products of the least developed of the developing countries of the world.
§ Mr. ShoreOn imports into the United Kingdom, tariff preferences are given to developing countries by United Kingdom statutory instruments and EEC regulations.424W Details of preferences under the Generalised System of Tariff Preferences for Developing Countries are set out in Part 10B of "HM Customs and Excise Tariff", a copy of which is available in the Library.
There are no special arrangements applied to the least developed of the developing countries except to the extent that the EEC regulations provide for preferences to be withheld from some of the more advanced of the developing countries, or provide limits designed to prevent the more advanced developing countries from monopolising the preferential advantages.
Certain other developed countries operate similar schemes.
