HC Deb 19 June 1978 vol 952 c23W
Mr. David Price

asked the Secretary of State for Trade what representations he has received about the likely effect of the proposed EEC sheepmeat regime upon British shipping; and what conclusions he has come to as a result of those representations.

Mr. Clinton Davis

I am aware of the concern of British shipowners in the New Zealand trade about the possible shipping implications of the proposed EEC sheep-meat regime. We will take full account of the substantial United Kingdom shipping interest in our consideration of the Commission proposals.
