42. Mr. Gardner

asked the Minister of Power what progress has been made with the development of frozen ground storage units for liquefied natural gas referred to in the Gas Council's Annual Report; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Mason

The first two frozen ground units in Europe are now in use at Canvey Island; two further units are expected to become available later this year. Each unit has a capacity of about 1,000 million cubic feet.
