§ Mr. Parryasked the Minister for Trade if he will make a statement on trade between the United Kingdom and Taiwan.
§ Mr. Peter Rees[pursuant to the reply, 24 January 1983, c. 256]: 1981 United Kingdom visible exports to Taiwan were £120 million and imports £321 million; they are likely to be about the same for 1982. In view of the opportunities offered by the Taiwan market the Anglo-Taiwan trade committee is encouraging a greater degree of attention on the part of British manufacturers.
