HC Deb 23 May 1974 vol 874 c247W
Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for Energy whether it is the Government's policy to make energy available to United Kingdom manufacturers at either preferential or economic rates; and whether he proposes over the longer term to allow the price of energy to be determined by oil prices or by some other criteria.

Mr. Varley

This question raises a number of complex issues, which I am considering as part of my review of the problems of energy strategy.
