HC Deb 13 February 1964 vol 689 c91W
18. Mr. Owen

asked the Minister of Power why he proposes to dissolve the regional advisory committees; and what alternative machinery he proposes to establish.

Mr. Peyton

As explained in the White Paper on smokeless fuel it is desirable that local authorities should cooperate more closely with the fuel and power industries in drawing up their smoke control orders. The regional advisory committees are not being dismantled until more experience of the new system is available.
