HC Deb 25 November 1981 vol 13 c386W
68. Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Industry if he will give his best estimate of the amount of public money expended on British Leyland's facilities at Bathgate since the foundation of the factory; and whether any of this expenditure was made in respect of the development of the tractor assembly line.

Mr. MacGregor

This information is not available except at disproportionate cost. It is likely that even if the information were readily available, it would be subject to the well established rules on commercial confidentiality.
