Mr. Denzil Davies

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what percentage of the total amount of electricity sold by the Central Electricity Generating Board in its last available accounting year came from(a) power stations owned and operated by the board and (b) electricity purchased from France.

Mr. Michael Spicer

The information requested by the right hon. Member is contained in the Central Electricity Generating Board's 1987–88 annual report and accounts, a copy of which is in the Library of the House. In 1987–88, 95 per cent. of electricity sold by the CEGB was produced by its own power stations and 5 per cent. was imported from France.
