HC Deb 06 August 1975 vol 897 c202W
41. Mr. Watkinson

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what Her Majesty's Government's participation in new licences in the North Sea will be.

Mr. John Smith

Our intention to provide for majority State participation in new licences was announced in the White Paper on Offshore Oil and Gas Policy in July 1974. I have nothing to add to that.
