124. Mr. Conway

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry when he last met his European counterparts to discuss the treatment of cars manufactured in the United Kingdom by Japanese-owned companies.

Mr. Ridley

I discussed the subject yesterday at the Foreign Affairs Council. I have insisted that cars manufactured in the EC by Japanese-owned companies should continue to enjoy unlimited free circulation throughout the Community, and I believe that this has now been accepted.
