Sale Of British Energy

EDM number 1151 in 1995-96, proposed by Ken Purchase on 11/07/1996.

That this House is appalled that news affecting the flotation of British Energy was suppressed until one hour after the share offer to the public was closed; and demands that a full explanation is given by Her Majesty's Government regarding the welding failures at Hinckley Point 'B' and Hunterson and the reason why an anouncement was delayed.

This motion has been signed by a total of 41 MPs.
