HC Deb 18 December 1972 vol 848 c267W
67. Mrs. Hart

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs on what date the prohibition on the holding of company directorships by the Crown Agents was ended.

Mr. Wood

Both Crown Agents and their staff holdex officio directorships in subsidiary companies of the Crown Agents and in companies in which the Crown Agents have a substantial interest.
