HC Deb 30 March 1983 vol 40 c186W
Mr. Henderson

asked the Secretary of State for Industry what progress has been made towards privatisation of the computer aided design centre.

Mr. Kenneth Baker

My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Industry has today agreed in principle for the computer aided design centre at Cambridge to be sold to a consortium led by IC'L and including Sia and W. S. Atkins. The new owners of the CAD centre will actively develop computer aided design and computer aided manufacture techniques in the United Kingdom.
