Mr. Thurnham

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will make a statement about grants available to foreign companies undertaking developments in the United Kingdom.

Mr. Giles Shaw

There is no discrimination in the provision of grants between British and foreign-owned companies undertaking developments in the United Kingdom. The main grants which may be available to qualifying projects are national and regional selective assistance, regional development grants, and support for innovation.
