HC Deb 11 January 1978 vol 941 cc769-70W
Mr. Hal Miller

asked the Secretary of State for Industry (1) in view of the widespread concern among employees, suppliers and dealers of British Leyland about the future of the company, whether he has approved any proposals for restructuring British Leyland; and if he will make a statement;

(2) whether he will confirm that any material changes from the Ryder plan, on the basis of which public money was advanced to British Leyland, will require the approval of this House.

Mr. Kaufman

The Government will not be in a position to take decisions until it has received the NEB's recommendations on the company's revised corporate plan.
