HC Deb 24 January 1978 vol 942 c573W
Mr. Leadbitter

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will publish in the Official Report the value of North Sea oil rig construction and related equipment contracts and the share awarded to United Kingdom firms and the North-East.

Dr. J. Dickson Mabon

Full details of the value of orders placed by offshore operating companies for the United Kingdom Continental Shelf in the latest period available—year 1976—are contained in our Department's publication "Offshore 1976", copies of which are in the Library of the House. I regret that separate figures are not available for the North-East of England.
