HC Deb 21 March 2001 vol 365 cc223-4W
Mr. Donald Anderson

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what factors arising from the downsizing of Corus will be taken into account in his current review of company law. [154515]

Dr. Howells

The wide-ranging review of company law launched by Government in 1998 is being conducted by an independent steering group of company law experts, business people and others. It is expected to present a final report to Ministers later this year. I am sure that the steering group will take all relevant factors into account in reaching its conclusions and recommendations
