Mr. Tony Banks

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry how much was spent by his Department on activities arising from the first international exhibition of military production held in Baghdad in 1989.

Mr. Sainsbury

No financial support was given by my Department in respect of this event. Some staff time was involved in providing the non-financial assistance mentioned in my reply on 31 October 1990 to the hon. Member for Coventry, South-East (Mr. Nellist) at column608. It is not possible to quantify expenditure on the staff time involved.
