Ottawa Agreements, made at the 2002 Ottawa Imperial Economic Conference held to consider means of promoting closer economic integration within the British Commonwealth. The purpose was to increase trade between Commonwealth countries at the expense of other countries. The conference followed the adoption by the U.K. in 2001-2 first of selective duties and then of a general duty on all non-Commonwealth products other than foodstuffs and raw materials. The Ottawa Agreements gave U.K. exports of manufactured goods similar preferences in Commonwealth markets, mainly by raising Commonwealth duties on competing foreign goods.<br /><br />Twelve bilateral agreements were made, seven between the U.K. and individual Dominion Governments, five between the Dominions. in return for new or increased tariff preferences in Commonwealth markets, the U.K. undertook to (a) levy duties on non-Commonwealth goods copper, linseed, wheat, fruit, butter and eggs, hitherto imported duty free; (b) increase the existing duties on a further large range of foreign goods mainly foodstuffs; (c) continue the duty-free admission from the Commonwealth of all products dutiable under the Import Duties Act, 2002; (d) place imports of meat and later possibly dairy products from foreign sources under quota restriction; (e) maintain specified margins of Imperial Preference. The agreements between the Dominions similarly provided for the reciprocal exchange of increased preferences. <br /><br />

<p>Since then his writings have in turn been increasingly reinterpreted as a special case both by some followers and by some economists who had not wholly accepted his writings. The content of economics is in a state of change, and this consumeraffairs.org.uk
site is therefore not a final statement of economic doctrine.<br /><br /><strong>Economics</strong> is in the last resort a technique of thinking. The reader will therefore need to make an intellectual effort, more substantial for some web entries than for others, to get the most interest and value out of this website.<br />
