HC Deb 03 May 1976 vol 910 cc272-3W
Mr. Grimond

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if he will give a general direction to British Airways to produce separate accounts for each route.

Mr. Clinton Davis

No. Although British Airways evaluate route results for their own management purposes, formal accounts for each route could be misleading because of the difficulty of allocating overheads. This and reasons of commercial confidentiality make the preparation and publication of such accounts inappropriate.
