HC Deb 19 November 1974 vol 881 c398W
Mr. Sillars

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what steps his Department is taking this winter to inform the public of energy-saving practices in the home and at work; and if he will make a statement on any energy-saving target he has in mind for this coming winter.

Mr. Eadie

The Government, the fuel industries and the relevant associations and professional institutions are actively engaged in publicity and promotion on energy saving. An example is the Department of the Environment's recent pamphlet on keeping heating costs down in the home. As to the last part of my hon. Friend's Question, the important thing is not targets but action by all concerned in their own interests as well as those of the nation.
