HC Deb 14 July 1978 vol 953 c835W
Mr. Lee

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will undertake to veto the introduction of a Common Market sheepmeat regime for so long as the Common Market sheepmeat prices remain higher than New Zealand lamb prices.

Mr. Bishop

In considering proposals for a sheepmeat regime, should one prove necessary, we cannot ignore the normal difference between fresh and frozen lamb prices, but we intend that any common measure should provide for no new restrictions on imports from New Zealand.
