HC Deb 18 April 1990 vol 170 c965W
Mr. Gareth Wardell

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will make it a criterion for the privatisation of the Export Credits Guarantee Department that the consequent relocation of offices from Cardiff, should take into account areas in Wales of high unemployment and poverty.

Mr. Ridley

There is currently no proposal for relocating the offices away from Cardiff nor do I expect one: but this would be a matter for the management after privatisation.
