HC Deb 08 March 1990 vol 168 c844W
52. Mr. Ken Hargreaves

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food which overseas food fairs and exhibitions his Department has attended since July 1989.

Mr. Curry

Since July 1989, the following fairs and exhibitions have been attended by Ministers and officials of my Department:

  • 16 October 1989—Anuga food fair, Cologne
  • 25 January 1990—Berlin green week
  • 6 February 1990—ISM Sweets and biscuits fair Cologne

I regard it as most important that British companies should receive maximum encouragement in their efforts to penetrate overseas markets.
