HC Deb 06 December 1983 vol 50 c135W
Mr. Marlow

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what information he has received from the British footwear industry about subsidies and other unfair trading practices in the Italian footwear industry with reference to footwear imports into the United Kingdom.

Mr. Channon

No recent information on subsidies or other unfair trading practices in the Italian footwear industry has reached me. If my hon. Friend has any such information, I should be pleased to have it. In appropriate cases, action can be taken by the Commission under the competition rules of the treaty of Rome.
