HC Deb 19 May 1978 vol 950 c337W
Mr. John Moore

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will give details for Scotland of the proportion of each of the following consumed by the domestic and non-domestic sectors, respectively oil, gas and coal.

Mr. Eadie

Of the total consumption of coal and public supply industry gas in Scotland in 1977, 11 per cent. and 49 per cent. respectively was consumed directly by the domestic sector. Comparable information for oil is not available, but it is estimated that direct domestic consumption accounts for less than 5 per cent. of total energy use of oil in Scotland.
