§ Mr. AllenTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if his Department will send an official to the Brno environmental exhibition in Czechoslovakia; and if he will make a statement on British participation.
§ Mr. Trippier[holding answer 19 July 1990]: This Department has not received an invitation to the environmental exhibition "ENVIBRNO" in Brno, Czechoslovakia, on 23 to 25 October. On the information available to me, however, I think it unlikely that an official from this Department will attend. My hon. Friend the Minister of State for Trade and Industry has today answered an associated question on the involvement of his Department and British industry in the exhibition.
