§ Mr. Coeasked the Minister of Power when he expects to receive the report of the Committee which he set up in July, 1968, to inquire into delays in commissioning Central Electricity Generating Board power stations; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MasonYes. I have now received the Committee's Report and have arranged for it to be published tomorrow. I shall be studying it as a matter of urgency with those concerned, including my right hon. Friend, the Minister of Technology, and the Central Electricity Generating Board, and expect to announce my conclusions in due course. In the meantime, I should like to express my special thanks to the Committee, and in particular its Chairman, Sir Alan Wilson, for giving up so much time in order to complete this important and difficult inquiry so quickly.
