HC Deb 20 February 1986 vol 92 cc323-4W
Mr. Robert Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will list in the Official Report the numbers of buses, repair and maintenance works, and depots, within each of the divisions of the National Bus Company, that have so far been designated for separate sale.

Mr. Ridley

The Government's policy is that the National Bus Company's 65 or so local subsidiaries should be sold individually as going concerns. As part of that process NBC will make available the necessary information for would-be purchasers to those concerned.
