To ask the Secretary of State for Energy, pursuant to his reply of Monday 15 February,Official Report, columns 516–18, if he will specify the funding provided in each of the table columns by year for (a) fast breeder reactor research, (b) fusion research, (c) thermal reactor research, (d) radioactive waste management, (e) renewable sources of energy and (f) energy efficiency.

Mr. Michael Spicer

The following table gives my Department's programme expenditure in the areas requested from the financial year 1975–76. Figures for the breakdown of the nuclear programme before 1975 –76 are not readily available; and the renewables and energy efficiency programmes did not begin until that year.
