Rolls-Royce Limited

68.

Mr. Allason
asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry when he expects to conclude negotiations with the Receiver and Liquidator of Rolls-Royce Limited, so that unsecured creditors may be paid in full.

Mr. Corfield
I cannot forecast when negotiations about the price payable for the assets acquired by Rolls-Royce (1971) Ltd. will be completed. Until this price is determined it is not possible to say how it will affect the dividend prospects of the unsecured creditors of Rolls-Royce Ltd.
