HC Deb 11 December 1958 vol 597 c111W
90. Mr. Chetwynd

asked the President of the Board of Trade what is the policy of Her Majesty's Government towards increasing trade with Indonesia.

Sir D. Eccles

Our main exports to Indonesia include machinery, chemicals and road vehicles. I am anxious that trade of this and similar kinds of goods should develop and I hope that an improvement in the general economic situation of Indonesia will soon make possible a resumption of cover by the Export Credits Guarantee Department. All the other normal facilities are available to help exporters to this market.
