Garlic: China
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what estimate her Department has made of the percentage change in the price of imported garlic from China as a result of the upcoming changes to the Tariff Rate Quota; and if she will make a statement.
- Answer
-
Earlier this year, the Government concluded negotiations with China under Article 28 of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. In these negotiations the UK is using historic trade data to ensure that the tariff rate quota volumes in our World Trade Organization Goods Schedule provide continuity for traders. The upcoming change has been made on this basis and therefore is not expected to affect the price of imported garlic from China.
