HC Deb 24 May 1974 vol 874 cc375-6W
Mr. Heseltine

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will set out in tabular form the following information about each of the nationalised industries for which he is responsible for each year since nationalisation: the turnover, the number of employees, the average earnings of those employees, the profit or loss, the amount of any capital written off, the value of exports, the total capital employed, the return on capital employed and the amount and source of the capital invested annually.

Mr. Carmichael

The annual reports and accounts of the industries concerned, which are laid before Parliament and are available in the Library, contain as much of the information as is readily available.
