HC Deb 18 January 1971 vol 809 c181W
96. Mrs. Kellett

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if, in view of the hardship caused by recent events to bondholders mainly in the north of England, many of whom are widows and elderly persons, he will consider introducing legislation to compel public boards to issue six monthly interim statements, and also, when seeking to raise additional capital, to make an up-to-date statement of their financial position, as is the case with private enterprise public companies.

Mr. Ridley

No.
