§ Mr. Skeetasked the Secretary of State for Energy what is the average price paid for domestic gas in England and Wales and for how long it has remained at that figure.
§ Mr. John SmithThe figure for 1973– 74 was 10.81p per therm. Reflecting the effect of higher consumption levels which has offset that of traiff increases, this was slightly below the 1964–65 average, and the figure varied very little in the interval.
