§ Mr. FreesonThe latest available information is to be found in the published annual reports and accounts of the industries. Information for 1969 will become available when the next annual reports and accounts of the N.C.B., the Gas Council and the Electricity Council are published in the autumn and of the B.S.C. in 1970. If my hon. Friend wants information not contained in these reports I suggest that he writes to the chairmen.
