HC Deb 21 March 1983 vol 39 c327W
Mr. Hoyle

asked the Secretary of State for Industry (1) what are the plans for the future of Government holdings in Celltech and Speywood laboratories in the longer term;

(2) whether the British Technology Group has plans to sell holdings in Celltech and Speywood laboratories.

Mr. Butcher

It is a matter for the British Technology Group to determine within the terms of its 1980 guidelines when it is commercially practicable to dispose of its holdings, including those in Celltech and Speywood laboratories.
