HC Deb 18 January 1968 vol 756 c663W
Mr. Barnett

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has received Lord Cromer's Report about export business from capital projects overseas and whether he intends to publish it.

Mr. Crosland:

I have received Lord Cromer's Report. which is available today from the Vote Office as a White Paper. It throws valuable light on how Government and industry can jointly approach the special problems of large export projects. I accept and have already acted on Lord Cromer's main recommendation to set up an Overseas Project Group in the Board of Trade. I shall pursue his more detailed recommendations in consultation with other Departments and with industry.
