HC Deb 04 July 1994 vol 246 c13W
Sir Michael Grylls

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what assessment he has made of the impact upon British industry of those military and defence sanctions which have already been imposed against Nigeria: when those sanctions will be lifted; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Needham

[holding answer 30 June 1994]: It is not the intention of the measures we introduced to damage our economic relations with Nigeria. We and our partners are keeping those measures under review, and will modify them in the light of progress towards democracy in Nigeria.
