HC Deb 19 June 1996 vol 279 c503W
27. Mr. David Evans

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what plans he has to increase the United Kingdom's contributions to the European Space Agency. [32137]

Mr. Ian Taylor

I am at present reviewing space policy, including priorities and expenditure. We are holding a second UK space policy forum at Queen Mary and Westfield college on 25 June and plan to issue a UK space policy forward plan following it.

I hope to make a further statement to the House around the time of the forum.
