HC Deb 07 December 1979 vol 975 c418W
Mr. Edward Lyons

asked the Secretary of State for Trade whether he will monitor goods entering the United Kingdom from other countries of the EEC in order to ensure that none have originated from non-EEC countries in breach of restrictions imposed by bilateral agreements on levels of imports between such countries and the United Kingdom.

Mr. Parkinson

[pursuant to his reply, 5 December 1979, c. I96]:Traders are already required to obtain individual import licences in order to import into the United Kingdom from another EEC member State goods which, if imported direct from outside the Community, are subject to quantitative restriction
