HC Deb 27 November 1986 vol 106 c310W
Mr. Robin Cook

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what assistance he is offering the Securities and Exchange Commission with its investigations into Cambria and General Investment Trust; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Howard

I am ready to offer the commission such assistance, within the terms of the memorandum of understanding with my Department, as it may request and as I can reasonably provide. However, as the hon. Member may have seen, the company has stated that it intends to co-operate with the commission in its investigation.
