HC Deb 18 June 1968 vol 766 cc124-5W
46. Mr. Eadie

asked the Minister of Power if he will consider holding a poll of consumer preference in the choice of fuels in the light of the changes taking place in the price structure of fuels.

Mr. Freeson

No. The results of various surveys, including some by the fuel industries, are already made available to the Ministry. The Ministry is constantly seeking ways of improving the information on which forecasts are based, but it is not possible to say at present what form further improvements would most usefully take.
