Charlotte Atkins: To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will make a statement on the progress of the action
plan for the textile industry. [139567]
Ms Hewitt: The Government have made considerable progress on the implementation of the 12 point plan for the textile and clothing
industry, announced on 6 June 2000 by my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry and the Minister for
Employment, Welfare to Work and Equal Opportunities. A new unit has been set up within the DTI to implement the 12 point plan as
well as the recommendations contained in the National Strategy, produced by the industry led, Textiles and Clothing Strategy Group
which were directed at Government.
Major developments have included: the establishment of a major new supply chain initiative for the textiles and clothing industry;
temporary relaxation of the rules for trade fair support to enable more textiles and clothing companies to receive assistance; the
establishment of more projects to help the technical textiles sector; initial meetings between public procurement agencies and
manufacturers to discuss ways to improve UK supplies of securing contracts.

Mr. Fraser: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will estimate the annual cost of the climate change levy to the clothing
and textile industry. [135564]
Mr. Timms: The impact of the levy will depend on a number of factors, including: the future energy consumption by firms; the level
of employment in those firms; the number of firms that are eligible to receive a discount on the main rates of the levy by signing
up to an energy efficiency agreement; what use they make of electricity generated from "new" renewable sources of energy and in
"good quality" combined heat and power plants; and the extent to which they take advantage of the proposed introduction of a system
of enhanced capital allowances for energy saving investments.

Mr. Fraser: To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what assessment he has made of the effect
on the clothing and textiles sector of the withdrawal of compulsory competitive tendering in the public sector. [135563]
Ms Beverley Hughes: None. There is no obvious connection between the local authority activities that were subject to competitive
tendering and the health of the clothing and textile sector. The new duty of best value, which applies from 1 April 2000, will
encourage the development of new markets in the provision of local authority services.
