HC Deb 12 March 1998 vol 308 c333W
Mr. Llew Smith

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what assistance her Department provided to British firms to help them participate in the ENVITEC Environmental Protection and Waste Management Technology Trade Fair held in Dusseldorf in March. [33027]

Mrs. Roche

The industry put in a very late bid for support which was considered carefully by the DTI. On balance, a decision was taken not to accept it. However, we expect to support nine other environmental events in the coming year.
