HC Deb 11 February 1970 vol 795 c345W
59. Mr. Pink

asked the President of the Board of Trade if, in view of the concern of many shareholders of Handley Page with the circumstances in which a receiver was appointed to Handley Page and with the terms and conditions of agreement reached with Craven Corporation of St. Louis, United States of America, he will consider arranging for a public inquiry to be held.

Mrs. Gwyneth Dunwoody

No. I do not think that a public inquiry would be justified.
