HC Deb 17 December 1992 vol 216 c377W
Sir John Stanley

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer in what areas of his Department's responsibilities he has introduced, or may introduce, private finance; and if he will describe in each case the procedures by which private finance is sought.

The Treasury does not undertake or sponsor large capital projects. It has, however, used leasing arrangements in the past. Decisions to lease or buy have been taken on value-for-money grounds. For the future, opportunities for further private finance will be considered in accordance with Treasury guidelines.
