HC Deb 14 February 1967 vol 741 cc49-50W
32. Mr. Blenkinsop

asked the Minister of Power whether he will give a general direction that discussions be held between the gas and electricity authorities regarding the future use of vessels no longer required by gas boards for coastwise cargoes.

Mr. Freeson

The sale of surplus vessels by the gas boards and their purchase by the C.E.G.B. are matters for the Boards, but my right hon. Friend is asking them to consult together when disposal of further vessels is contemplated.
