Baroness Mobarik
I assure my noble friend that the Department for International Trade has been engaging widely with individual businesses and trade associations since the referendum and will continue to do so. We are committed to fully understanding the views of stakeholders, limiting uncertainty and ensuring that we build a trading environment that works for everyone.
Lord Rooker (Lab)
What percentage of companies in the UK that the Department for International Trade has been dealing with are owned outside the UK so that the key decisions are made in boardrooms outside this country?
Baroness Mobarik
I am afraid that I do not have the exact numbers but I will endeavour to write to the noble Lord with that information.
