§ Malcolm BruceTo ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry pursuant to her answer of 30 January 2004,Official Report, column 591W, on Nigeria, if she will provide a breakdown of Nigeria's debt to the Export Credits Guarantee Department, broken down by sector; and if she will list the top five contracts by value on which these debts are based. [158287]
§ Mr. Mike O'BrienI refer the hon. Member to my official reply to his question on 30 January 2004,Official Report, column 591W. For the reasons stated earlier in that answer and the way in which records were kept in the 1980s, it is not possible to provide a breakdown of Nigerian debt according to trade sector without incurring disproportionate cost.
