HC Deb 09 March 1989 vol 148 cc623-4W
20. Mr. Nicholas Brown

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if the financial arrangements with potential acquirers of Harland and Wolff for meeting existing liabilities or for meeting losses on existing contracts will exclude any liabilities or losses in respect of the AOR1, contract.

Mr. Viggers

The financial arrangements with potential acquirers of Harland and Wolff will involve a complex range of factors. I can confirm, however, that they will include provision for meeting losses on existing contracts.
