§ Dr. David ClarkTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will press for measures within the European Community similar to those adopted by the United States of America which provide for trade sanctions against countries which ignore whale conservation measures.
§ Mr. GummerIt has been widely recognised that the United Kingdom Government have taken a strong lead on the conservation of whales. We shall continue to do that and hope to have continued success working through the International Whaling Commission.
