HC Deb 03 April 1979 vol 965 cc625-6W
Mr. Frank Allaun

asked the Secretary of State for Energy whether he has had any discussions with the boards of the nationalised industries for which he is responsible, with a view to obtaining a speedier release of land owned by them but not presently used for operational purposes.

Mr. Benn

I have not yet done so, but in view of my hon. Friend's question I shall write to the chairmen concerned on this point.
