Mr. Lloyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if she will make a statement on the LOTIS Committee. [51667]

Ms Hewitt

The LOTIS Committee is part of International Financial Service, London, an independent private sector trade association (formerly known as British Invisibles) representing business interests in the City of London. Government officials are invited to attend the Committee's meetings as observers, as they are with many other trade associations and non-governmental organisations.
