HC Deb 15 May 1978 vol 950 cc78-9W
Mr. Kenneth Clarke

asked the Secretary of State for Trade what withdrawals have so far been made from the EEC's original offer in the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade multilateral trade negotiations; and if any further possible withdrawals are being considered.

Mr. Meacher

The Commission has given its main negotiating partners a list of likely withdrawals from the industrial tariff offer made by the Community in January. Details are confidential. Further adjustments to the offer may be needed in the light of the overall position in the negotiations and of changes that may be made in the offers of other countries.
