HC Deb 25 April 1983 vol 41 c223W
14. Mr. Sheerman

asked the Minister for Trade to what extent he has taken into account the conclusions of the Price Waterhouse report in the formulation of Her Majesty's Government's policy towards the future of British Airways.

Mr. Sproat

The Price Waterhouse report was commissioned by the British Airways Board, not the Government. Both the board and the Government have taken account of the conclusions of the report (which was written over a year ago) in pursuing our common objective of restoring the airline to profitability.
