§ 17. Mr. Nicholas Brownasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what is his policy on the maintenance of a domestic workload for the United Kingdom power plant industry; and what measures he has taken towards its implementation.
§ Mr. ButcherThe domestic workload of the power plant industry is substantially dependent on the ordering programme of the electricity boards, which is not within the control of the Department of Trade and Industry; there are therefore no measures directly available to my Department to maintain this workload.
