HC Deb 07 December 1979 vol 975 c392W
Mr. Michael Brown

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he has had any discussions with the Electricity Council and the British Gas Corporation regarding the sale of Electricity and gas showrooms.

Mr. Norman Lamont

No. I shall consider initiating such discussions if, in the light of the outcome of our studies of nationalised industry policy issues, it appears that they could contribute to our aim of improving efficiency, competitiveness, and service to the customer.
