Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask His Majesty's Government what (1) opportunities have been introduced to the UK, and (2) transactions have been completed, by each of the Prime Minister’s Trade Envoys in respect of (a) each sector, and (b) each country, in the last two years.

Trade Envoys are appointed by the Prime Minister to support the Government’s trade and investment objectives. Trade Envoys add value in their respective markets, through the soft power influence they bring in developing relationships with key influencers and feedback has been very positive. Trade Envoys are one part of the Department’s support for British businesses seeking to export and win contracts overseas and we do not separate out the impact of Trade Envoys from our broader departmental work.
