HC Deb 14 June 1971 vol 819 cc11-2W
Mr. Carter

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry how many companies registered for the purposes of the Companies Act, 1948, have gone into voluntary or involuntary liquidation during the period June, 1961, to June, 1971; and if he will list them individually in the OFFICIAL REPORT together with their individual and accumulated losses, and, in the case of motor car insurance companies, the numbers of policyholders affected.

Mr. Ridley

As the number from April, 1961, to March, 1971, inclusive was 28,365 I would not feel justified in circulating a list in the OFFICIAL REPORT.

I regret that the information asked for in the second part of the Question could not be provided except at disproportionate expense, if at all.
