I am informed by the Industrial Development Authority that, as stated in my earlier reply of 19 November 1985 it has sought repayment from the receiver of all contingent grant liabilities. These have not yet been discharged. The liabilities include a grant of £62,140 paid in respect of the cost of the machines in question, i.e. £177,544.
