	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/10/2018 answer text <p>The Treasury gave consent to UK Export Finance (UKEF) to provide financing support for the export of Typhoon aircraft, associated equipment and services to the Government of Qatar on national interest grounds. The Treasury works closely with UKEF to assess the risks to the Exchequer arising from such support. To ensure effective assessments can be made, detailed commercially sensitive information is required. Were these assessments to be published, it would inhibit UKEF's ability to obtain the information required to consider transactions and would ultimately limit their ability to support UK exporters.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss question first answered 30/10/2018 14:56:49 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss
