HC Deb 21 June 1978 vol 952 c202W
Mr. Aitken

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will make a statement on the intended locations for the increased research on alternative sources of energy.

Mr. Eadie

The programmes of research into alternative sources of energy comprise a large number of projects carried out by individual firms, universities or other organisations which have the particular type of expertise or experience necessary. They are widely dispersed. Contracts for the recently announced increased programmes of research have not yet been placed.
