HC Deb 01 April 1996 vol 275 c6W
Ms Rachel Squire

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what plans he has to establish a launch aid scheme for defence export products. [23685]

Mr. Eggar

None. The promotion of defence export product is primarily a matter for my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Defence. The statutory basis for launch aid is the Civil Aviation Act 1982.
