HC Deb 18 July 1955 vol 544 cc8-9W
65. Mr. Nabarro

asked the Minster of Fuel and Power what action he has taken as a result of the findings of the industrial steam survey conducted by his Department two years ago.

Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd

My Department analysed the results of the survey to determine the number of individual cases where the installation of back pressure engines was likely to prove economic and my Fuel Efficiency Advisory Committee considered this analysis. I have arranged with the National Industrial Fuel Efficiency Service to examine, in consultation with the firms concerned, 300 possible schemes where the prospects of saving fuel seem best.
