§ 33. Dame Irene Wardasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will make a statement on his proposals to help shipbuilding, shipping and the Seahorse project.
§ Mr. Peter WalkerI will consider policy towards the shipbuilding industry when I have received the Booz Allen report. Already proposals have been made to provide selective assistance to shipowners and shipbuilders under the Industry and Science and Technology Acts. I will consider proposals on the Seahorse project as soon as they are received from the company.
