HC Deb 12 February 1987 vol 110 c317W
Mr. Michael Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what discussions have taken place with the major oil companies with a view to altering the British standard for diesel fuel in the winter months to prevent waxing-up.

Mr. Buchanan-Smith

The specification for diesel fuel sold in the United Kingdom is determined by the British Standards Institution. It is currently being amended, and will be issued for public comment in the near future.
