HC Deb 17 March 1952 vol 497 c170W
13. Mr. Langford-Holt

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power what research he has carried out to ascertain whether lubricating oil which has been re-refined falls short in any way of accepted standards.

Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd

I do not think any special research is necessary to demonstrate the qualities of re-refined lubricating oil.

14. Mr. Langford-Holt

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power what amount of waste lubricating oil was re-refined in 1951; and what would be the dollar cost of an equivalent import.

Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd

Excluding re-refining on commission, 12,000 tons and 1 million dollars respectively.
