HC Deb 06 February 1974 vol 868 c339W
79. Dame Patricia Hornsby-Smith

asked the Minister for Energy if he will make it clear to petrol stations that they need not limit the use of tyre pressure units to conserve electricity, in view of the danger of low tyre pressures to motorists.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

My Department has issued a general licence permitting electricity to be used to operate compressed air outlets on garage forecourts for this purpose. I am asking the Motor Agents Association to draw its members' attention to this licence.
