HC Deb 24 January 1977 vol 924 cc459-60W
Mr. Shersby

asked the Secretary of State for Energy why his Department did not pursue the new fuel additive which offers substantial potential savings in fuel reports invented by Mr. Nathan Newman; and why Mr. Newman was unable to obtain any reply to the letter of his company, Armamol, in Stalybridge, Cheshire.

Dr. John A. Cunningham

My officials have had discussions and correspondence with persons interested in Mr. Newman's invention and have made to them certain suggestions relating to its exploitation. No direct reply has yet been sent to Armonol because it was believed that an organisation apparently working on their behalf would keep them informed.
