HC Deb 19 July 1968 vol 768 c303W
Mrs. Ewing

asked the Secretary of State for Economic Affairs if he will list the places where Government services set up to help small businesses are located, under the headings of the Export Promotion Services, the Ministry of Technology's Advisory Service, the British Productivity Council and the Aston Small Business Centre; and how much has been spent on each service in each year since its inception.

Mr. Shore

I am providing a grant to the Small Business Centre at the University of Aston, Birmingham; this amounted to £7,250 in 1966–67 and £6,750 in 1967–68. Questions about the export promotion services and the British Productivity Council should be addressed to my right hon. Friend the President of the Board of Trade and about the Ministry of Technology's services to my right hon. Friend the Minister of Technology.
