HC Deb 24 March 1999 vol 328 cc266-7W
Mr. Chope

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what was the last occasion on which a Government Minister led a trade delegation to(a) Ukraine and (b) Uruguay; and what future trade delegations are planned. [76562]

Mr. Wilson

There has been no Ministerially led trade delegation to Ukraine. The then Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, the right hon. Member for South-West Norfolk (Mrs. Shephard) visited Uruguay in September/October 1993.

There are no plans at present for a Ministerially led trade delegation to visit Ukraine or Uruguay.
