HC Deb 01 July 1971 vol 820 c185W

Mr. David Mitchell

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he intends to recruit for the British Exports Board the senior executive staff of the British National Export Committee in view of their experience in industry and their skill and expertise in export promotion.

Mr. Noble

This question is being discussed at the moment between B.N.E.C. and the Department. It is too early to give any firm answer.
