HC Deb 16 January 1986 vol 89 c634W
Mr. Murphy

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry how much launch aid Her Majesty's Government proposes to make available to British Aerospace in connection with the development of (a) the TA9 airbus project and (b) the TA11 airbus project; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Pattie

The supervisory board of Airbus Industries has yet to make any decision on the launch of these projects. The question put by my hon. Friend is thus premature.
