HC Deb 13 July 1988 vol 137 c213W
Mr. Tim Smith

To ask the Attorney-General when the Crown Prosecution Service received from the City of London police the papers relating to the Liechtenstein subsidiaries of Lonrho plc, Blorg and Contango.

The Attorney-General

The Director of Public Prosecutions first received papers from the City of London police in August 1986. He concluded that no further action was called for, a view which was shared by the then Attorney-General. Further papers have been submitted to the Director by the police and others on a number of occasions since. The Director has found no reason to depart from the conclusion reached in 1986.
