ON THE RIEVEW WHICH IS TAKING PLACE AT THE MOMENT. THE IMPORTANT THING IS THAT THOSE TWO SHOULD GO IN PARALLEL AND I HAVE EVERY HOPE THAT THEY IN FACT WILL DO SO. WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE THE RESULT OF THE REVIEW BUT I HAVE EVERY CONFIDENCE THAT WE WILL END UP WITH A PRACTICAL SOLUTION AT THE END.
Q. (SA NI HARTE, SUNDAY MORNING POST): THE 1984 WHITE PAPER STATED THAT THERE WAS A POLITICAL REVIEW THIS YEAR. COULD YOU GIVE US SOME INDICATION WHETHER THERE WILL BE ANOTHER POLITICAL REVIEW
AFTER THIS?
A:
I AM IN NO POSITION TO TALK ABOUT REVIEWS BEYOND 1987. I THINK WE HAVE GOT TO GET THIS ONE OVER FIRST AND THEN WE WILL HAVE THE RESULT IN DUE COURSE FOLLOWED BY THE WHITE PAPER BEYOND THAT. AND I AM AFRAIT I HAVE NO FURTHER PLANS FOR A REVIEW. THANK YO ALL
VERY MUCH
