HC Deb 09 December 1982 vol 33 cc602-3W
Mr. Stephen Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Transport whether the working party which he set up in March 1982 to look into the procedures for considering applications to moor floating structures for the storage of gas or oil has completed its work; and when he expects to announce the outcome of this review.

Mr. Eyre

The working party has completed its work, and the Government are considering its recommendations. My right hon. Friend hopes to be able to make an announcement soon.
