HC Deb 31 January 1984 vol 53 cc160-1W
Mr. Wallace

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what turnover he currently estimates for the United Kingdom energy efficiency industries, including both manufacture and installation.

Mr. Buchanan-Smith

The energy efficiency industries are spread over a number of sectors and it is not possible at this stage to give reliable estimates of their turnover. The energy efficiency office is examining ways in which the energy efficiency industries might promote their goods and services more effectively and has already put in hand a number of studies which may enable more reliable estimates of the industries' turnover and potential to be made.
