HC Deb 23 January 1940 vol 356 c385
87. Mr. Boothby

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Trade what steps are now being taken to increase our trade with the Balkans?

Mr. R. S. Hudson (Secretary, Overseas Trade Department)

A variety of steps are being taken to promote United Kingdom trade with the Balkans. They vary from country to country, according to the conditions. I fear that a detailed statement could not be given within the scope of an answer to a Parliamentary Question.

Mr. Boothby

Is full use being made of the Export Credits Guarantee Department?

Mr. Hudson

Yes, Sir.
