Mr. Kenneth

Clarke asked the Secretary of State for Industry what is the policy of the Government towards the encouragement of Japanese investment in the British consumer electronics industry recommended in the latest report of the consumer electronics sector working party.

The Government have worked closely and consistently with both management and union members of the consumer electronics sector working party and the Japanese industry to reach a consensus on the role of Japanese investment in the British consumer electronics industry. Government policy and SWP recommendations are at one on this matter.
