Mr. Eggar

asked the Secretary of State for Energy how many therms of gas the British Gas Corporation purchased in 1979; what was the average price paid per therm; what was the highest price paid per therm; and for how many therms the highest price was paid.

Mr. Norman Lamont

These are matters for the British Gas Corporation. I am asking the chairman of the corporation to write to my hon. Friend about them.
