HC Deb 06 February 1976 vol 904 c782W
Mr. Sillars

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what has been the coal burn in Scottish power stations in each of the past 10 years.

Mr. William Ross

Figures for coal consumed at the South of Scotland Electricity Board's power stations over the past 10 years are published in Appendix VI to the Board's Annual Report for 1974–75.

The North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board has not operated a coal-fired station since 1971. I am asking the Chairman of that Board to write to the hon. Member about coal consumption in the years 1966 to 1971.
