HC Deb 25 November 1985 vol 87 cc410-1W
29. Mr. Peter Bruinvels

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will make a statement on current progress of the feasibility study on combined heat and power in Leicester; and how this progress compares with the feasibility studies in respect of other cities.

Mr. David Hunt

Agreements between Belfast, Edinburgh and Leicester consortia and the Secretary of State for Energy for grant aid towards the preparation of prospectuses have been signed. The consortia's work programmes, which differ in some respects, began in April and are on schedule. The consortia expects to complete its programmes over the next 12 months.
