HC Deb 26 July 1984 vol 64 cc786-7W
Mr. George Robertson

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry (1) what consultations he intends to carry out before the revision or possible extension to the European Economic Community-Yugoslavia trade agreement due to expire in June 1985;

(2) if any further concessions on manufactured goods were made to Yugoslavia at the meeting of European Economic Community Foreign Ministers with Yugoslavia in Luxembourg on 18 June.

Mr. Channon

The EEC-Yugoslavia Co-operation Council agreed at its meeting on 18 June to extend, without any further concessions, the trade aspects of the co-operation agreement beyond June 1985 until a protocol adapting the agreement was concluded following the accession of Spain and Portugal to the Community. In any future negotiations relating to the agreement the Government will give due consideration to any views expressed by United Kingdom industry.
