HC Deb 17 December 1953 vol 522 c91W
85. Mr. Bottomley

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will make a statement about the services now being offered by Her Majesty's Government to those engaged in the export trade.

Mr. P. Thorneycroft

Hon. Members will already have received a letter from my right hon. Friend the Minister of State describing the steps which the Board of Trade are taking to make Government services to exporters more widely known. These services cover a wide range of practical assistance to individual firms seeking to sell in overseas markets.
