§ 10. Mr. Errollasked the Minister of Fuel and Power what allocations of fuel oil were made to separate industries during 1948; and in what ways allocations will be altered during 1949.
§ Mr. GaitskellFuel oil is not allocated to separate industries, but firms authorised by my Department to use fuel oil received their agreed requirements in full during 1948, and will continue to do so in 1949.
§ Mr. ErrollCan the Minister, nevertheless, reveal the allocations which were 1320 made to various industries during 1948, which was the subject of this Question, as I understand that the information is available in his own Department?
§ Mr. GaitskellNo allocations were made to separate industries as such. If the hon. Member is asking for the consumption of fuel oil by different industries, I will endeavour to give the information to him.
§ Mr. ErrollI was asking for those figures.
