HC Deb 18 November 1976 vol 919 c717W
Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for Industry whether it is the Governments intention in their general industrial strategy to permit the BSC to extend the support at present being mooted for United Kingdom constructional steel work manufacturers seeking export contracts to the manufacturers of heavy plant for use in overseas steel plant locations.

Mr. Les Huckfield

These are commercial matters for the Corporation to decide. It is developing plans, which we welcome, for increasing support for British exporters, including heavy plant manufacturers.
