HC Deb 16 April 1986 vol 95 c401W
Mr. Randall

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what estimates he has made of the impact of the new Customs and Excise levies on supplies to Eastern bloc fish processing vessels on the sale of British fish; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. John MacKay

Until the scale and scope of these levies have been agreed, my right hon. and learned Friend is not in a position to estimate their effect on the sales of fish.
