HC Deb 16 April 1970 vol 799 c290W
Mr. Ogden

asked the Minister of Technology if he will introduce legislation to establish a British fuel and power authority.

Mr. Alan Williams

No. The Ministry of Technology is continuing the work on fuel policy previously done by the Ministry of Power. Major questions of national and regional policy are involved. These are responsibilities of the Government which are best discharged by a Minister answerable to Parliament.
