HC Deb 19 July 1982 vol 28 c5W
30. Mr. Woolmer

asked the Minister for Trade whether he will ensure that the renewal of voluntary restraint arrangements on imports of textiles and clothing from Portugal will be kept within overall quota level targets already agreed by the Council of Ministers.

Mr. Peter Rees

It remains the Government's intention that any voluntary restraint arrangement with Portugal covering group I products should be agreed within the global ceilings for imports of these products adopted by the Council of Ministers earlier this year.
