answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/11/2016 answer text <p>The Government is determined to deliver on its ambition for stronger global trade. Whilst it is important to recognise the iconic role the Royal Yacht played during its period of service, commissioning a new Royal Yacht is not on the Government's agenda. As a result, this Department has not undertaken a cost/benefit analysis of deploying a Royal Yacht for trade promotion.</p><p>There is nothing to prevent private enterprise from proposing and building a new yacht for the UK to use for trade support, overseas visits and humanitarian reasons.</p> answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 03/11/2016 14:58:42 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Lord Sharma
