Cyprus: Trade Promotion
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether trade envoys are permitted to visit northern Cyprus.
Answered by Blair McDougall
While carrying out official duties Trade Envoys are representatives of Government and are therefore expected to follow Government policy. The Government’s long-standing position of not recognising the self-declared ‘Turkish Republic of North Cyprus’ remains unchanged.
