HC Deb 04 December 1978 vol 959 c470W
19. Mr. Viggers

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what discussion he has had with his ministerial colleagues in the EEC regarding the increased use of EEC-produced coal in power stations within the Community.

Mr. Benn

I have had such discussions on frequent occasions, both formally in the council and bilaterally with other Energy Ministers. No progress has yet been possible.
