HC Deb 16 June 1997 vol 296 c59W
Mr. Martyn Jones

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what measures she has taken to assist the United Kingdom environmental technology industry; if she will make a statement. [3582]

Mr. Battle

The Government recognise the importance of the environmental industry and will be exploring with its members how we can best work together to support it. We have already made financial help available under the Sector Challenge to a project aimed at helping companies in the technology and services sub-sector to export.
