§ Mr. Carterasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry why he will not publish the report of the investigation of the collapse of the Vehicle and General Insurance Company.
§ Mr. NobleAs I have previously stated, the report has been sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions and police inquiries are being made; it is not the normal practice to publish such reports if it appears that to do so might prejudice possible future prosecutions.—[Vol.841, c.132–3.]
