Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what steps her Department is taking to boost British exports.

The Department for International Trade announced a refreshed Export Strategy, Made in UK, Sold to the World on 17 November at the UK’s first International Trade Week. This business-centred 12-Point Plan is designed to transform our support for exporters, encourage them to ‘sell to the world’ and accelerate our race to £1 trillion exports per year.

The Made in the UK, Sold to the World campaign will boost demand for UK exports internationally. Supported by the Export Support Service (ESS), the UK Export Academy, UK Export Finance, our International Trade Advisers and global networks, UK businesses will be supported at every stage in their export journey.
