HC Deb 04 April 1984 vol 57 c539W
Mr. Rost

asked the Secretary of State for Energy whether the oil to coal burning conversion grant scheme has been extended to include applications for conversion from oil to burning of refuse-derived fuels.

Mr. Giles Shaw

No. The coal firing scheme deals specifically with the replacement or conversion of oil or gas-fired boilers to coal-firing. The scheme represents one of the ways in which the Government are helping industry to reduce its energy costs, and assisting the NCB in the development of markets for coal.
