HC Deb 30 January 1958 vol 581 cc104-5W
Mr. Hector Hughes

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that British trade and commerce with Nigeria is confronted with growing competition there from Western Germany, Italy, Japan, Holland, India and other countries; and what steps he is taking to maintain and develop Birtish trade and commerce in and with Nigeria.

Mr. Vaughan-Morgan

Yes. Our exporters have to contend with keen competition in Nigeria and indeed in most markets nowadays. I intend to visit Nigeria in March to see for myself what further steps can be taken to expand our trade there.
