Proceeding contribution from John Grogan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 19 May 2005. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Industry and the Environment.
Industry and the Environment
My right hon. Friend mentions sustainable businesses. Given the importance attached by the Prime Minister to implementing our manifesto, which refers to developing a publicly owned Royal Mail, will he rule out the proposals made by Royal Mail boss Allan Leighton to privatise it? Those proposals would mean that initially, 51 per cent. of shares would be sold off to staff.
