HC Deb 12 February 1968 vol 758 c278W
Mr. Swain

asked the Minister of Power whether he still estimates that the market for gas will double in the next two and a half years; if he is satisfied that North Sea gas will be available ashore in sufficient quantities to make this possible; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Marsh:

I still expect that the market for gas will have doubled between 1966 and the early 1970's as stated in the White Paper and that North Sea gas will be available ashore in sufficient quantities to make this possible.
