HC Deb 05 November 1971 vol 825 c45W
Mr. Proudfoot

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he can now make a further statement on the review of the fixed rate export credit arrangements.

Mr. Higgins

As my right hon. Friend told the House on 26th January, the Government have been reviewing the whole matter of the export finance arrangements. This review has now reached a stage at which it will be useful to hold technical discussions with the London and Scottish Clearing Banks and a working party has been set up for his purpose with membership drawn from the clearing banks, the Bank of England and the Government Departments concerned.— [Vol. 810. c. 305.]
