Export Intelligence Department (Advertising)

HC Deb 23 January 1968 vol 757 cc88-9W

Mr. William Hamilton

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the need to increase exports, he will now restore the advertising budget of the Export Intelligence Department to the figure prevailing before the summer cut of 20 per cent.

Mrs. Gwyneth Dunwoody

There was no such cut in expenditure last summer. The Export Intelligence Advertising Campaign is being intensified to take advantage of the situation resulting from devaluation.
