HC Deb 22 February 1967 vol 741 c301W
Mr. Hector Hughes

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will state his plans to increase and extend Scottish trade with Russia as a result of the visit of Mr. Kosygin, indicating the aspects of Scottish-Russian trade which he estimates will benefit most.

Mr. Jay

I propose to discuss with the Soviet Minister of Foreign Trade what further steps can be taken in the light of Mr. Kosygin's visit to increase trade between the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union and to achieve a better balance.
