HC Deb 01 April 1982 vol 21 c158W
Dr. John Cunningham

asked the Secretary of State for Industry what discussions he has had with British Aerospace about its proposed involvement in the A320 airliner project; when he expects to make a decision about the funding of the project; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Wakeham

My Department has asked British Aerospace to provide further information about the project. At this stage I cannot say when the Government will reach a decision on the question of launch aid.
