HC Deb 14 January 2002 vol 378 c60W
Mr. Redwood

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what assistance the Government have offered BAE Systems to secure a contract in Tanzania to supply an air traffic control system. [25202]

Dr. Moonie

The Ministry of Defence, primarily through the Defence Export Services Organisation, is responsible for co-ordinating Government support for legitimate defence exports. In carrying out these responsibilities, assistance is available to defence equipment exporters in support of overseas marketing campaigns. It is, however, not our policy to provide details of individual campaigns for reasons of commercial confidentiality.
