HC Deb 18 December 1986 vol 107 c610W
Mr. Adley

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make an estimate of the costs incurred by British industry arising from the severing of diplomatic links with Syria; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Eggar

No. It is not possible to quantify what, if any, costs to British industry can be directly attributed to the break in relations.
