Import Duties: Morocco
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of eliminating tariff rates quotas on Moroccan fresh produce at times of the year when the produce is not in season in the UK.
Answered by Chris Bryant
The UK and Morocco are currently undertaking a review of tariffs on Agriculture goods, of which greater access to the UK market for tomatoes is a priority for Morocco. Tomatoes are amongst a number of products which are being considered as part of the negotiation. Any final agreement will need to benefit UK business and consumers.
