§ Sir David Priceasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will publish in the Official Report the 190W conditions appertaining to the offer of sale by British Shipbuilders of Vosper Thornycroft Ship Repairers Ltd., in respect of the subsequent maintenance of the business of shiprepairing and of the various sites.
§ Mr. ButcherI have asked British Shipbuilders to ascertain the intentions of the prospective purchasers and I hope that it will be possible for them to sell the company as a shiprepairer. However, British Shipbuilders is not seeking to impose a formal condition to this effect.
