• The 1972 Italian quota for commercial vehicles, which had recently been agreed, would meet only about half the genuine demand, estimated Mr John . Peyton; the Minister for Transport Industries, in the Commons.
The proportions for France and Western Germany were about three-fifths and four-fifths respectively, he added.
Leading pro-Marketeer Sir Tufton Beamish (Tory, Lewes) told him that the refusal by France and Western Germany to issue sufficient permits, and . Italian agreement, was inhibiting British exports.
Mr Peyton replied that he was well aware of the difficulties caused by these restrictions and he would continue to urge the need for liberalization at every suitable opportunity.
