HC Deb 05 December 1990 vol 182 c128W
Mr. Flynn

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will now make it his practice to answer any questions relating to the export of militarily sensitive supergun parts to Iraq.

Mr. Lilley

[holding answer 27 November 1990]: Where I can add to the information provided by my hon. Friend the Minister for Trade on Second Reading of the Import and Export Control Bill, without helping the Government of Iraq (or any other would-be evader of export controls), I will answer questions which fall within my Department's area of responsibility.
