HC Deb 03 July 1980 vol 987 c686W
Mr. Patrick McNair-Wilson

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he is satisfied that there will be sufficient supplies of smokeless fuel available during the coming winter, even if it is severe.

Mr. John Moore

Given no interruptions in production I do not foresee any general difficulty in meeting smokeless fuel requirements this coming winter. However, I cannot anticipate the effects of exceptional weather conditions, when, for example, roads may be blocked.
