HC Deb 05 March 1976 vol 906 cc768-9W
Mrs. Chalker

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how much money was spent in each of 1974 and 1975 showing the industrial potential of Scotland to Government-sponsored foreign visitors; and how many such visitors there were in each year.

Mr. William Ross

The numbers of foreign visitors whose visits to Scotland were sponsored by the Government were: 1974, 196; 1975, 240.

It is impracticable to provide an apportionment of expenditure on showing these visitors industrial potential as most participated in more general tours. A large proportion, however, were shown aspects of industrial development or potential as part of their programme.
