HC Deb 10 April 1973 vol 854 c250W
Mr. Bishop

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what commercial and other appointments are held by the Chairman of the new Nuclear Energy Corporation; and if the chairman is expected to relinquish any other responsibilities.

Mr. Peter Walker

I would not have agreed to the invitation to Lord Aldington to chair the new nuclear company if I had not been satisfied that he would be able to give the time required to undertake this important job. Nor would he have accepted the invitation on any other basis.
