HC Deb 09 June 1982 vol 25 c118W
Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what advantages his Department has secured from a study of the European Commission market analysis of spot operations since monitoring was agreed to in March 1979.

Mr. Gray

European Commission studies were carried out in the six months to October 1978 and the 12 months to June 1980; the studies gave an evaluation of the accuracy of published reports of market prices and an insight into the volumes traded.
