HC Deb 22 October 1981 vol 10 c171W

Mr. Adley asked the Secretary of State for Industry if he intends to discuss with Sir Michael Edwardes the current dispute at British Leyland Ltd.; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Norman Lamont:

My right hon. Friend meets the chairman of BL from time to time to discuss both current and strategic matters. However, as pay and industrial relations are matters for the management of BL to handle, he does not intend to make a statement.
