The following table gives details of the Regional Development Agencies overseas offices by country and the annual costs for 2005-06; these are reviewed annually. The London Development Agency has this year set up an office in China but there are no related costs for 2005-06. This expenditure is kept under continuous review by the RDAs. A joint review of UK representation overseas by UKTI and the RDAs is under way and we are hoping to complete that review by September 2007.
