HC Deb 18 May 1990 vol 172 c583W
Mr. Beggs

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he will urgently seek co-operation from the Government of the Irish Republic to jointly fund legal actions against those persons suspected of fraudently acquiring investors' monies from International Investments Ltd.

Mr. Redwood

No. As the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry understands the position, International Investments Ltd. is a company which was incorporated in Gibraltar and is now in liquidation. The Secretary of State is not aware of any activities of the company which would bring it within the jurisdiction of the statutes for which he is responsible.
