The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, when his Department plans to publish a trade strategy.

Answered by Mr Douglas Alexander

We intend to publish the Trade Strategy in the Spring.

The Trade Strategy will focus on the ways that trade is changing and how the UK can take a forward-facing approach to drive economic growth. It will be consistent with the Government’s Industrial Strategy and Small Business Plan.
