Question Asked
Asked by:
Tim Farron (Liberal Democrat)
Answer
The Department for International Trade (DIT) has been forged out of the forerunner (non-ministerial) Department UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) and has assumed the Trade Policy Unit responsibilities previously held by the Department for Business Innovation and Skills (BIS). My Rt hon Friend the Secretary of State for International Trade also has responsibility for UK Export Finance (the Export Credits Guarantee Department), which has its own budget.
The budget of the department is currently being established and will be submitted to Parliament later this financial year.
