HC Deb 05 March 1968 vol 760 cc58-9W
60. Mr. Rose

asked the President of the Board of Trade what progress has been made in the action taken to encourage industry to increase its efforts to export, in view of the new opportunities afforded by devaluation.

Mrs. Gwyneth Dunwoody

I refer my hon. Friend to the reply to a similar question asked by the hon. Member for Cambridge (Mr. Lane) on 7th February. There is growing evidence that exporters generally are responding with determination to the opportunities presented by devaluation and are increasingly optimistic about future export prospects.—[Vol. 758, cc. 387–8.]
