§ Mr. CoxTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what actions Her Majesty's Government are taking to promote increased investment from the United Kingdom to Kenya; and if he will make a statement. [17102]
§ Mr. NelsonI have been asked to reply.
My Department, together with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the Overseas Development Administration, is offering assistance to the Kenyan Government in their efforts to attract investment through financial and technical assistance and the introduction of key Kenyan individuals to UK organisations for attracting inward investment. We are also making potential UK investors aware of the opportunities in Kenya through our trade promotion programme.
