PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
PRIME MINISTER'S ROLE IN GATT TALKS (24 November 1992)

Motion Details

That this House warmly congratulates the Prime Minister on his success in taking the lead in re-starting the stalled U.S.-European talks on oilseeds and the major role of the British Presidency in bringing them to a successful conclusion, thereby averting the imminent risk of a trade war and enabling the resumption of substantive multilateral trade talks under the GATT; supports his determination to bring these wider talks also to success, if possible by the end of the year; and affirms that trade liberalisation is in the interests of all trading nations and their industries, including agriculture and affords the prospect of perhaps $200 billion extra output and the best chance for early resumption of world economic growth.
