HC Deb 21 October 1993 vol 230 cc302-3W
Mr. Llew Smith

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what steps he has taken to support the export activities of the United Kingdom nuclear industry since 1979.

Mr. Eggar

In association with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and Embassies overseas, my Department provides general support for the export activities of the nuclear industry, subject to necessary regulation in the areas of non-proliferation, safety and environmental protection. Where specifically requested, umbrella co-operation agreements have been negotiated between Governments. In addition, the industry can make use of the comprehensive package of assistance offered to all exporters by my Department.
