The Prime Minister

The Government are obtaining a copy of that report.

Mr. Allen

To ask the Prime Minister which east European countries have not taken up the credit which is available to them; how much is still available; and if she will make a statement.

The Prime Minister

Export Credits Guarantee Department cover, subject to varying security requirements, is available for short-term credits for all markets of eastern Europe. Cover for medium-term export credits—that is, credits in excess of two years—is available to Czechoslovakia, GDR, Hungary and the USSR. The position on the availability of ECGD medium-term credit for other countries is under active review.
