§ Mr. CoxTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what discussions he has had with Commonwealth countries as to the possible importation of cassava chips; and if he will make a statement. [18481]
§ Mrs. BrowningMy right hon. Friend has not held discussions on imports of this product with any Commonwealth countries. Various preferential quotas exist which facilitate imports of cassava—manioc—into the EU from third countries in which members of the Commonwealth are free to participate.
