HC Deb 22 February 1971 vol 812 cc32-3W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if, in view of corruption in one of the nationalised industries and the implication of one of the chairmen of the nationalised boards, details of which have been sent to him by the hon. Member for West Ham, North, he will have an independent investigation made.

Mr. John Davies

I have read the article to which the hon. Member has referred. I have seen no evidence to back the imputation of impropriety. If it exists, and the hon. Member cares to send it to me, I will consider it.
