Mr. Goodlad

[pursuant to his reply, 13 March 1987, c. 314–316]: My earlier reply included details of the holdings of the CEGB and the SSEB in the Electricity Producers' Insurance Co. Ltd. I am advised that there is an additional similar company— NIRA Ltd— in which those bodies have interests of 31.5 per cent. and 5 per cent. respectively. I apologise for any inconvenience caused by its omission.
