HC Deb 10 July 1996 vol 281 c178W
Mrs. Beckett

To ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will withdraw the sale of British Energy if the sale proceeds are less than the lowest market capitalisation value as set out on page 9 of the share offer prospectus. [36557]

Mr. Lang

I am confident that the privatisation of British Energy will achieve value for money for the taxpayer.
