§ Mr. David AtkinsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will list the overseas visits made by him and each of his Ministers since they were appointed to the Welsh Office; and if he will make a statement. [27900]
§ Mr. HagueMinisterial colleagues and I make overseas visits from time to time to promote inward investment into Wales, to assist our businesses in the promotion of their international trade and in relation to European and other issues. A full list of such visits was placed in the Library of the House on Friday I March this year. I have subsequently led a short inward investment mission to the USA, and my hon. Friend the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State visited Luxembourg to attend an Agriculture Council meeting.
