North Sea Oil (Scottish Committee)

HC Deb 12 July 1972 vol 840 c352W

Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Lord President of the Council if he will propose the establishment of an all-party committee of Scottish Members to investigate all the implications of the discovery of North Sea oil.

Mr. R. Carr

No. In my view the present needs for parliamentary discussion can be met satisfactorily through existing Committees.
