HC Deb 01 March 1989 vol 148 c234W
56. Mr. Foulkes

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, what action he has taken to encourage Japanese and Korean investment in Scotland.

Mr. Lang

Through Locate in Scotland, the Government continue successfully to encourage companies from the far east to establish themselves in Scotland. To further increase the effectiveness of Locate in Scotland operations in the Japanese and other far eastern markets, two new posts have been established in Tokyo within the past 12 months. An additional far east post was also created at Locate in Scotland headquarters in Glasgow last year.
