HC Deb 14 June 1965 vol 714 cc37-8W
Mr. Boardman

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will state the number of firms participating in the British Exhibition at Tokyo, and their names and products.

Mr. Jay

The British Exhibition in Tokyo is being organised by British Overseas Fairs Ltd., with the support of the Board of Trade. British Overseas Fairs Ltd. inform me that nearly 400 British companies will exhibit or will be represented at the Exhibition. They have provided a preliminary list of these companies and of the products to be shown; this has been placed in the Library.

About 150 British manufacturers of consumer goods will also take part in the store promotions which will be held in 22 departmental stores situated mainly in the central shopping district of Tokyo.
