To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he has any plans to incorporate the eastern European countries within the portfolio of the Department of Trade and Industry's exports to Europe branch.
Mr. Sainsbury
No. The exports to Europe branch deals with trade between the United Kingdom and EC and EFTA countries. It would not be appropriate to include other countries within its sphere of work.
