HC Deb 19 July 1982 vol 28 c2W
17. Mr. Park

asked the Minister for Trade what will be his main objectives at the meeting of Ministers of the general agreement on tariffs and trade countries in November.

Mr. Peter Rees

The Government's objectives will be in conjunction with our partners in the European Community to secure at the meeting a reinforced commitment to the open trading system by the contracting parties and to set in hand programmes of work for the GATT in the 1980s on a number of specific subjects.
