§ Mr. Welshasked the Secretary of State for Energy what plans he has to hold energy-saving seminars or discussion groups in Scotland.
§ Mr. John SmithSeminars and conferences, including those in Scotland, are normally organised independently and my right hon. Friend encourages these ventures where appropriate by Government support or contributions either directly or from local regional offices. In Scotland, Ministers have so far spoken at four meetings this year on energy conservation and are considering speaking at a further two. No doubt there will be more.
