Mr. Meadowcroft

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will list the occasions on which his Department was involved with United States customs, in relation to the United States investigation and fine of Systime plc; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Brooke

Systime plc was the subject of informal discussions between United Kingdom and United States Customs between 1982 and 1985. The United States investigation and the fine on Systime plc were not discussed.
