Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Prime Minister, whether she discussed Bombardier and its business interests in the US with the Secretary of State for International Trade prior to his visit to that country in July 2017.

Ministers across government, including me, have had discussions about a range of issues relating to international trade and investment. This is in addition to engagement with senior officials in the US Administration and lawmakers, with the Canadian Administration, and with Bombardier in Canada and Belfast.
