HC Deb 18 November 1976 vol 919 c747W
Mr. Edwin Wainwright

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will now, in order to save the power plant makers' industry from redundancies, give a commitment to a steady ordering pattern for power stations over the next two decades, with an immediate decision for the building of a new coal-fired power station.

Mr. Benn

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer given to the hon. Member for Tynemouth (Mr. Trotter) on 16th November—[Vol. 919, c.466].
