HC Deb 17 December 1973 vol 866 cc245-6W
Mr. Redmond

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what plans he has to ensure that fuel is available to motor schools in order to enable them to continue in business.

Mr. Tom Boardman

Motor schools should at present be able to obtain sufficient fuel for their needs if in common with other consumers they exercise economy. If coupon rationing had to be introduced, they could obtain both basic and business rations for their vehicles and could apply for supplementary allowances if necessary.
