To ask Her Majesty’s Government, in the light of their commitment that any assistance to Nissan would be provided in compliance with state aid and World Trade Organisation rules and kept within current spending limits, whether they will offer similar support to other businesses; and if so, what criteria they will apply in deciding what compensating reductions will be made to ensure that expenditure limits are not breached.
