HC Deb 26 March 1980 vol 981 c579W
Mr. George Roberts

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if he will introduce legislation to prevent the stimulation of imports to the United Kingdom which is caused by promotional exhibits and demonstrations of foreign goods.

Mr. Parkinson

United Kingdom manufacturers rely on exhibitions overseas to promote their exports and any attempt to interfere with exhibitions in the United Kingdom would invite retaliation.
