HC Deb 12 November 1975 vol 899 cc729-30W
Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for Energy whether he proposes that fur- ther State funds should be used to enable either the National Coal Board or the CEGB to finance coal stocks.

Mr. Eadie

The National Coal Board and the Electricity Council already have access to the National Loans Fund as a source of finance for stocking of coal. This will continue.
