§ Mr. Ian Lloydasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he will have prepared, for display in the 225W Upper Corridor Lobby and for publication as a Green Paper, a series of charts on energy supply and utilisation patterns for the United Kingdom similar to those prepared for the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy of the United States Congress, Document No. 5270–01947, "Understanding the National Energy Dilemma".
§ Mr. Tom BoardmanI have not seen the charts referred to, but I am obtaining a copy and shall study them. I shall consider publishing a statement on energy when the current uncertainties have cleared a little. I do not think that a partial publication in the meantime would be desirable.
