HC Deb 30 June 1967 vol 749 cc145-6W
Sir R. Russell

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will publish a list of the organisations he consulted before deciding to keep Summer Time all the year round; what was the method of consultation; and how he estimated that a majority of public opinion was in favour of the change.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

A list of the organisations which were consulted, or volunteered views, is appended. Consultations were carried out by the appropriate Departments, mostly in writing, and the comments on the economic and social aspects were then assessed and compared.
