HC Deb 17 December 1973 vol 866 c246W
Mr. Redmond

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what representations have been made to him concerning the non-availability of oil for heating of old people's homes in Bolton and elsewhere; what replies he has sent; and what action he has been able to take.
