United Kingdom was amember of Parliament assigned to assist theBoard of Trade and its President with administration and liaison with Parliament. It replaced theVice-President of the Board of Trade .From September 1953, a more senior ministerial post, the
Minister of State for Trade also existed. At times, the Parliamentary Secretary post was then filled by a member of the House of Lords.On 20 October 1970, the Board of Trade was merged with the Ministry of Technology to create the modern
Department of Trade and Industry . The role of Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Trade therefore ceased to have practical application beyond that date.
