HC Deb 15 March 1971 vol 813 cc211-2W
Mr. Peter Rees

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he will publish the reports of the Inspector on the affairs of the Irish American Insurance Company Limited, London and Cheshire Insurance Company Limited, London and Midland Insurance Company Limited, and Coventry Insurance Company Limited.

Mr. Ridley

We have decided in this particular case not to publish the report. We consider that it would be improper to publish a report containing reflections upon individuals, after the conclusion of criminal proceedings in which allegations against some of those individuals have not been proved.
