HC Deb 14 February 1983 vol 37 c19W
25. Mr. Hal Miller

asked the Secretary of State for Industry what recent discussions he has had with BL on its policy for the sourcing of components.

Mr. Norman Lamont

BL keeps me and my Ministerial colleagues fully informed of its overall policy on purchases of components. Individual decisions on component purchasing are, however, matters for the commercial judgment of the company.
