HC Deb 28 February 1961 vol 635 cc105-6W
Mr. Skeet

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in view of the potential overseas demand for longer-term export credits, whether his department will set up either an export finance corporation or take steps to encourage the establishment of export finance companies associating the capital of the joint stock banks and others to provide long-term finance to exporters of capital goods to the under-developed territories.

Mr. Selwyn Lloyd

The Government recognise that there are genuine problems affecting the supply of credit for certain limited classes of exports, but I am not in a position to add to my, statement on this matter during the debate on 6th February.
