§ Mr. Skeetasked the Secretary of State for Energy what he estimates to be the current shortfall in fuel and feedstock supplies for the chemical industry.
§ Mr. GrayThere is a current shortfall of supplies of all oil products, including fuel and feedstock for the chemical industry, which averages about 5 per cent. Provided all consumers, including the chemical industry, exercise reasonable economies in their use of oil, this level of shortfall should not affect industrial output.
