HC Deb 20 January 1981 vol 997 c111W
Mr. David Steel

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will list in the Official Report the levels of standing charges for domestic gas at May 1980 and November 1980, respectively, with the percentage increases, in each area of the United Kingdom.

Mr. Norman Lamont

The setting of tariffs, which includes the level of the standing charge, is a matter for the British Gas Corporation. I have therefore asked the chairman to write to the right hon. Gentleman.
