HC Deb 15 February 1980 vol 978 c864W
Mr. Shersby

asked the Secretary of State for Trade what representations he has received from the potato processors concerning alleged dumping of dehydrated potatoes from Canada and elsewhere; what action he is taking; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Parkinson

There have been preliminary discussions between the industry and my Department on the possibility of an application to the European Commission for anti-dumping action against imports of Canadian dehydrated potato granules. We stand ready to give further help and advice in the preparation of an application.
