HC Deb 14 February 1980 vol 978 cc752-3W
Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if he is satisfied that there exist adequate provisions to prevent the asset-stripping of a company in a way that is detrimental to public employment policy.

Mr. Eyre

I have no present intention to change the existing position, whereby there are no provisions in law to prevent a company realising its assets, although certain transactions may be set aside on winding up.
