EXPORTS OF RESTRAINED TEXTILES TO NORWAY
The Director of Commerce and Industry today advised exporters
and manufacturers about the "swing" arrangements for the export of
restrained textiles to Norway in the extended restraint period from
July 1, 1972 to December A, 1972.
Under the existing textiles agreement there is provision for
a 10 per cent swing between categories. Six categories are inlcuded in
this arrangement.
On the advice of the Textiles Advisory Board, the "swing"
will be carried out in two phases. The first phase begins immediately
and the second about October 16.
Trade associations and companies on the Commerce and Industry
Department's mailing list for notice to exporters Series 6 (Europe,

copies soon.
People wishing to get advance copies are asked to contact
either Miss M.P.L. To, Assistant Trade Officer, on H-229777 or Mr. A.R.
Swinton, Industry Assistant on H-247315.
