HC Deb 01 December 1969 vol 792 cc185-6W
48. Mr. Tom Boardman

asked the Minister of Technology whether the Investment Grants Advisory Committee have yet reported on the operation of the minimum value policy; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Varley

No. I understand that the Committee has given some thought to the matter, but has decided that it would be inappropriate to make a report until a final judgment had been given in the case which the British Oxygen Company has brought against the Board of Trade.
