HC Deb 17 November 1982 vol 32 c215W
29. Mr. Corrie

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if talks have taken place between his Department and Ayrshire Marine Construction at Hunterston to draw up a new lease for the yard.

Mr. Younger

Following our meeting with representatives of the company on 3 November, officials of my Department are discussing the lease with company representatives today. I hope that it will prove possible for a new lease to be drawn up.
