Mr. Charles Kennedy

To ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will make a statement on the proposed visit by Offshore Supplies Office officials to the Sicilian fabrication site, Consorzio Ital Offshore.

Mr. Eggar

[holding answer 28 March 1994]: In the course of discussions between British consulate officials and the Consorzio Ital Offshore, an invitation was extended to OSO to visit CIO's fabrication site in Sicily.

Apparently following adverse comment in the United Kingdom press the invitation to visit the site was withdrawn.
