HC Deb 22 June 1981 vol 7 c28W
24. Mr. Adley

asked the Secretary of State for Industry if it is his policy specifically to encourage denationalisation, or private sector participation, in those industries for which his Department is responsible.

Sir Keith Joseph

I am actively pursuing the scope for privatising, or when relevant opening up to competition, all the nationalised industries and commercial organisations for which I am responsible.
