§ Mr. Foulkesasked the Prime Minister if she is satisfied with the steps taken to encourage re-investment of profits in the Falklands.
§ The Prime MinisterYes. The aim of the Falkland Islands Development Corporation is to encourage investment in the development and diversification of the local economy, including reinvestment of funds generated in the Islands.
