HC Deb 26 January 1990 vol 165 c929W
Mr. Morley

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what plans he has for the introduction of individual transferable quotas; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Curry

Individual transferable quotas have been operated successfully in a number of countries and I am investigating whether they would have a useful role to play here. If I believe that they could be adapted to our conditions, the industry will be fully consulted about possible schemes. No definitive plan exists at present.
