HC Deb 09 June 1967 vol 747 c273W
Mr. Eadie

asked the Minister of Power if he is satisfied that the existing gas distributing mains, designed for low pressure towns' gas, will be capable of handling safely the higher pressures required for natural gas; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Freeson

Yes. The pressures required for natural gas in low pressure distributing mains are no greater than those increasingly being used in existing systems supplying conventional town gas.
