HC Deb 12 June 1985 vol 80 c452W
Mr. Ashdown

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry how many copies of the letter from IBM of 22 December 1983 regarding the movement of advanced IBM machines within the United Kingdom his Department has received; and how many complaints relating to the letter, or similar letters, he has received.

Mr. Channon

Several copies of the IBM letter have been received from a number of sources but there have been no complaints of practical difficulties arising from its provisions. I am not aware of any other letter containing similar provisions.
