Developing Countries: Overseas Trade
(asked on 6th July 2017) - View Source
Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what steps the Government is taking to promote trade between the UK and the Least Developed Countries.
This question was answered on 12th July 2017
Trade brings economic growth to developing countries and benefits UK producers and consumers. That is why on 25 June I announced that as we leave the EU, we will secure duty-free access to UK markets for the Least Developed Countries. Once we have left, we will build on our track-record as a champion of trade and development, strengthening our existing support and seizing new opportunities to increase trade links.
