§ Mr. Peter Robinsonasked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland whether any proposed financial assistance to PX Nuclear Ltd. has been delayed or withheld; whether any assurances as to the continuation of the business were given by his Department; and what representations he has received from firms which have traded with PX Nuclear Ltd.
§ Mr. Adam ButlerGrant-aid which would otherwise have been payable in November 1980 was not issued because of the company's failure to observe the conditions in its selective assistance agreement with the Department of Commerce. No assurances relating to the continuation of the business were given by the Department of Commerce.
