HC Deb 12 February 1968 vol 758 cc278-9W
Mr. Swain

asked the Minister of Power what effect devaluation will have on the profits or losses of the gas industry in 1968; and what effect this will have on the consumer.

Mr. Freeson:

The effect of devaluation, both on the costs of the gas industry and on its prices, is one of the factors being taken into account by the National Board for Prices and Incomes in its present examination of gas and coke prices.
