§ 5. Mr. DalyellTo ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster when it is now expected that (a) Sir Brian Hayes and (b) Mr. Neville Ledsome will retire.
§ Mr. NewtonSir Brian Hayes is expected to retire in September this year, and Mr. Neville Ledsome in November this year.
§ Mr. DalyellCould it be delicately suggested to them that, before retirement, they might like to follow the example of John Mogg and Colette Bowe, and put their versions of what happened in relation to Westland in January 1986 into a bank vault?
§ Mr. NewtonThe matter has been fairly fully raised by the hon. Gentleman in the House over a very long period. I have nothing to add to the full accounts that the Prime Minister has given to the House.
