The question
To ask the Scottish Executive whether it has had discussions with Scottish Development International regarding the planned trade mission to Israel and, if so, on what date.
The answer
Scottish Development International (SDI) is a joint venture between the Scottish Government and Scottish Enterprise. It arranged the trade mission to Israel, in partnership with UK Trade and Investment, as part of its regular yearly programme of overseas trade missions.
As there are no restrictions in place as regards trading with Israel, there was no requirement for SDI to seek dispensation from Scottish Government colleagues prior to arranging this trade mission.
