To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will list in theOfficial Report all investigations which the European Commission has made into state aids in textiles and clothing in the European Community since 1986 and the eventual outcome of those cases which have been resolved; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Sainsbury

I refer my hon. Friend to the European Commission's annual competition policy reports (part 3, chapter 1 and the annexes to the 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th reports on competition policy), copies of which are available in the Library of the House. These list all formal investigations opened by the European Commission into state aids, including those for textiles and clothing, arid their outcome.
