(2) what is the proportion of energy requirements generated by nuclear power in the EEC individual countries; what is projected to the end of 1973; and how this compares with world generation of the same source;

(3) how many coal-fired power stations are in generation in the individual countries of the EEC; how many others are projected; and if any new ones will be ready in 1973.
