Mr. Kennedy
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy if he will clarify the role of the offshore supplies office post-1992; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. Peter Morrison
After 1992, the Offshore Supplies Office will be responsible for ensuring fair opportunity for the United Kingdom offshore supplies industry in the home, European and overseas markets. It will continue to support the development of new technology on the United Kingdom continental shelf and promote United Kingdom exports to international oil and gasfield markets.
