§ Mr. Crouchasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what representations he has had concerning London's trade exhibition facilities; and whether he is satisfied that they meet the requirements for trade promotion now that Great Britain is in the enlarged market of the EEC.
§ Sir G. HoweI have received a number of such representations. London's facilities cannot be looked at in isolation and the new National Exhibition Centre near Birmingham will provide 271W an important and timely addition to United Kingdom exhibition facilities. But I will continue to look carefully at all proposals for additional facilities in the London area.
