Aid And Trade Provision

Mr. Richard Page
asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what changes have been made in the aid and trade provision and administration.

Mr. Channon
I refer my hon. Friend to my right hon. and learned Friend's statement on 12 November in which he told the House that the Government were introducing a soft loan facility to enable the doubling by 1988–89 of the annual business that might be won through support under the aid and trade provision.
