§ 23. Mr. Edelmanasked the Secretary of State for Industry, Trade and Regional Development whether he is aware of the promotional methods employed by American aircraft firms in their export markets; and what assistance or advice he has offered British aircraft companies competing in these markets to ensure that they shall not be disadvantaged by these methods.
§ Mr. HeathIf the hon. Member will let me have information about the particular methods he is referring to I will consider it. But I have no evidence either that the Americans use trading practices which are contrary to international obligations or that British aircraft companies are not competent in the conduct of their sales campaigns.
