§ Mr. Campbell-SavoursTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what information the Crown Suppliers privatisation unit has provided to those firms or groups who have expressed interest in purchasing the Crown Suppliers; and if he will place a copy in the Library.
§ Mr. ChopeFollowing my announcement of 28 July, a number of firms and groups interested in purchasing the Crown Suppliers were sent a copy of that announcement, a copy of "The Crown Suppliers' Annual Report and Accounts for 1987" (already in the Library) and an information memorandum prepared by Samuel Montagu and Co. Ltd. I am arranging for copies of the information memorandum to be placed in the Library shortly.
