HC Deb 26 November 1969 vol 792 cc103-4W
86. Mr. Eadie

asked the Minister of Technology what part he estimates that the paper industry will play in the drive for increased exports.

Dr. Ernest A. Davies

This industry's principal export opportunities are in specialities and grades with high added value. It is taking good advantage of these: in 1968 the industry's total exports were 20 per cent. higher in value than in 1967, and there is an encouraging fur- ther increase this year. The industry believes that it can continue to increase its exports, and I share this view.
