HC Deb 14 July 1966 vol 731 c1706
32. Mr. Cordle

asked the President of the Board of Trade, in view of the success of the Beirut Hospital Exhibition, what plans he has for similar exhibitions; and when and where they will be staged.

Mr. Mason

Discussions are taking place with the trade organisations concerned and the Ministry of Health about a number of promising possibilities, but I am not yet ready to give details.

Mr. Cordle

Will the hon. Gentleman bear in mind that Amalgamated Development Limited, which initiated the Beirut Exhibition, will very much welcome this news?

Mr. Mason

Yes, it was an excellent joint venture. A good deal of trade flowed from it and we are considering another six abroad.
