Dear Mr. Shore

Thank you for your courtesy in sending me a copy of the statement which you issued while I was in Hungary.

As I told the House on Thursday, there is no question of conflict arising between my private interests and public duties. My public duty is to get contracts and work for Britain. I do not distinguish between British companies, and cannot do so.

Yours sincerely,

Margaret Thatcher
