Erhvervsudvalget Udvalgsformanden Økonomi  - og Erhvervsministeriet Økonomi  - og erhvervsminister Bendt Bendtsen Christiansborg, 17. november 2005 Kære Erhvervsudvalget  vil  som  tidligere  nævnt  meget  gerne  invitere  dig  med  udvalget  på  studietur.  Vi rejser  til  Indien  11.  –  20.  februar  2006.  Vi  forventer  at  blive  en  stor  udvalgsdelegation  på  15    -16 erhvervsudvalgsmedlemmer på denne rejse. Udvalget har været meget optaget af bl.a. outsourcing/offshoring. I den forbindelse er forståelse af Indiens  udvikling  og  konkret  samarbejde  med  Indien  og  virksomheder  placeret  i  Indien  af  stadig større  betydning  for  den  forsatte   udvikling  af  et  internationaliseret  dansk  erhvervsliv.  Yderligere spiller Indien en til tider betydelig rolle på WTO -området. Vi   håber   at   få   mange   væsentlige   indtryk   af   erhvervsvilkår,   erhvervs -udviklingstendenser   og langsigtede  erhvervsperspektiver  med  hjem  fra  vores  besøg  hos  virksomheder,  organisationer  og myndigheder i Bombay, Bangalore og New Delhi, og vi håber alle, at du kan deltage i rejsen denne gang, hvorfor jeg vedhæfter udkastet til program. Med venlig hilsen Kurt Kirkegaard
