HC Deb 09 April 1984 vol 58 c25W
18. Mrs. Dunwoody

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will make a statement on the sale of Sealink UK Ltd.

Mr. David Mitchell

I understand that British Rail's merchant bankers have received an encouraging response to their letter of 19 March seeking expressions of interest in Sealink UK Ltd. They have now issued an information memorandum to a number of potential purchasers on the basis of confidentiality undertakings.

Mr. David Mitchell

I refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave earlier today to the hon. Member for Crewe and Nantwich (Mrs. Dunwoody).
