HC Deb 21 May 1946 vol 423 cc50-1W
98. Mrs. Middleton

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power the quantity of petrol used for lighter fuel for each of the 15 months, January, 1945, to March, 1946, respectively; and whether there is any restriction upon the quantity of petrol that can be used for this purpose within any given period.

Mr. Shinwell

The grade of petroleum spirit supplied for lighter fuel is used for a number of other purposes, and I regret that the information asked for in the first part of the Question is not available, although the quantities are small in relation to other use of motor spirit. The answer to the second part of the Question is in the negative.
