§ Mr. Trotterasked the Secretary of State for Trade whether he is satisfied that there is an adequate United Kingdom organisation to bring together in a turnkey project all the technical and manufacturing expertise necessary to carry out complete power station projects; and whether he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MeacherThe question of an adequate organisation to carry out complete turnkey power station projects is one of the matters covered by the study which is being undertaken by the Central Policy Review Staff on the future of the United Kingdom power plant manufacturing industry. Its report will include recommendations on the subject. It would be premature to make a statement until Ministers have considered the report and decisions have been taken on it.
