HC Deb 13 March 1995 vol 256 c440W
21. Sir Wyn Roberts

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what plans he has for stimulating Welsh exports in the coming months; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Gwilym Jones

The Welsh Office's programme of trade missions and trade fair representation continues to give small and medium-sized companies in Wales the opportunity to join sales missions to markets throughout the world. Visits will be made to 13 markets over the next 12 months and some of these will be led by Ministers. Representations will also be offered at trade fairs in Dubai and Kuala Lumpar.

Welsh Office staff will continue to mount seminars, workshops and other events and visit new and existing exporters to provide advice and information.
