§ 6. Dr. Mawhinneyasked the Secretary of State for Energy how much diesel fuel was produced in the United Kingdom in the last year for which figures are available.
§ Dr. MawhinneyDoes my hon. Friend agree that the diesel engine industry is a strategic industry and that firms like Perkins in my constituency should not be exposed to unfair competition, from whatever source?
§ Mr. GrayI noted a recent article that suggested that Perkins, along with British Leyland, was carrying out research on a motor car diesel engine. We wish such a venture every success.
