§ Mr. Brothertonasked the Secretary of State for Energy whether he has knowledge of the direct and indirect costs incurred by energy industries in providing information on a regular basis to his Department.
§ Dr. John A. CunninghamI do not have this information and it would be390W disproportionately expensive to obtain it. However, much of the information which the energy industries provide to my Department on a regular basis is prepared routinely for management purposes and the additional cost of providing it to my Department is minimal.
