HC Deb 22 October 1976 vol 917 c581W
Mr. Stephen Ross

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what feasible preparation of whale fats and whale oil, excluding sperm oil, are excluded from control under Amendment No. 18 of the open general import licence; and why these have been decontrolled since 1st January 1976.

Mr. Bishop

I have been asked to reply.

No feasible preparations of whale fats and oils except sperm oil are to my knowledge excluded from control under Amendment No. 18 of the open general import licence. There has been no change since March 1973.
