(3) if he will publish in the Official Report the site locations in the United Kingdom where perchloroethylene is produced.

Mr. Maude : Within the United Kingdom, both trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene are produced at one site in Runcorn. I am aware of only four United Kingdom plants for the production of ethylene dichloride ; these are at Runcorn, Wilton (Teeside), Fleetwood and Ellesmere port.

Barlow Clowes

Mr. Austin Mitchell : To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster whether he will make a statement on the implications for his Department's investigation of the Barlow Clowes affair of the refusal of Singer and Friedlander to hand over the proceeds of the sale of shares in Buckleys to Harp to the liquidators of Barlow Clowes.

Mr. Maude : It has no implications for my Department's investigation. It is a matter for the liquidator.

Ozone Layer

Mr. David Young : To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will indicate what action his Department is taking to encourage British industry to stop emissions that affect the ozone layer ; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Maude [holding answer 21 February 1989] : Officials from my Department are in regular contact with producers and users of ozone- depleting chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) to consider what measures industry can take to meet the targets for CFC reductions set by the Montreal protocol on substances that deplete the ozone layer. Before emissions can be stopped completely, practicable and safe alternative substances, products and processes need to be developed. It is open to companies to make full use of the assistance available under schemes operated by my Department, against the relevant criteria.
