Rolls Royce

Asked what communication the Prime Minister had had with President Bush about Rolls Royce, the PMOS replied that we did not disclose on the Prime Minister’s behalf discussions he had on commercial matters. We had always made it clear that we supported British industry, but we did not discuss individual conversations about either commercial matters, or ones with President Bush. They remained private.

Put that the tone had been reported that "this was a matter of serious national interest", the PMOS said we obviously took every opportunity to promote British industry, but he was not going to get into discussing individual contracts or conversations.
