Lilian Greenwood – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lilian Greenwood on 2016-04-11.

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, pursuant to the Answers of 20 February 2016 to Question 27903 and 3 March 2016 to Question 28905, what the reason is for the apparent discrepancy between the number of overseas visits listed in each answer.

Anna Soubry

Having checked the responses from the previous two requests, it appears that the answer to Question 28905, had inadvertently excluded the visits undertaken by Lord Puttnam in 2014. These visits were to:

Vietnam

Cambodia x2

Laos x2

Burma

Also since receiving the original request, there had been another visit in 2016, so the total recorded went from 12 to 13.
