answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/07/2016 answer text <p>Bangladesh’s export market, in particular the ready-made garments sector plays a pivotal role in Bangladesh’s economy. A loss of investor confidence, due to recent violence and attacks against foreign nationals, could adversely harm Bangladesh’s economy and as a consequence its impressive progress towards middle-income status. <br> <br> Extremist related violence is an international problem that requires all countries to work closely together to prevent atrocities and tackle the root causes. Along with the international community we are committed to supporting Bangladesh in this global challenge. As the largest grant aid donor to Bangladesh we continue to address some of the root causes such as poverty and economic marginalisation.</p> answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 20/07/2016 16:55:38 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma

We have been encouraged by the interest coming from a range of non-EU countries, including some of our closest allies. Across government, we are preparing options for our future trade policy for the Prime Minister, my Rt Hon. Friend the Member for Maidenhead (Mrs May) to consider. We are also rapidly building civil service capacity and capability on trade. answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 20/07/2016 16:17:37 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma
