To help the hon. Gentleman get his train of thought back, his Bill says that it would apply to ““substantial”” share ownership. However, a 1 per cent. holding in BP, for example, might be considered substantial because of the sums involved, whereas a 1 per cent. holding in a small firm might be tiny, so could he say what ““substantial shareholdings”” means?
