HL Deb 10 January 2002 vol 630 cc121-2WA
Lord Rea

asked Her Majesty's Government:

When they intend to publish the Export Credits Guarantee Department's annual report and resource accounts for 2000–01. [HL2233]

Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean

The Export Credits Guarantee Department's (ECGD's) annual report and resource accounts for 2000–01 were laid before the House this morning. I am pleased to say that they demonstrate once more that British capital goods exporters and investors have been successful in winning valuable overseas orders with government insurance and guarantee support worth £5.6 billion. Furthermore, they show that ECG:D is in a good financial position from which to continue supporting further business while protecting the interests of the taxpayer in what is a difficult period for the global economy.
