§ 27. Mr. KidneyTo ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what progress he has made in his review of the export credit guarantee scheme. [120532]
§ Mr. CabornThe Review of ECGD's Mission and Status, which I announced last July, is proceeding satisfactorily. The public consultation exercise and a number of independent studies into certain aspects of ECGD's operations have provided valuable evidence. These inputs will enable Ministers to determine the right way forward for ECGD, and I expect to announce the outcome of the Mission Review to the House in the next month or so. I expect the Status element of the Review to be completed later in the year.
