HC Deb 20 March 1991 vol 188 c121W
Mr. Colvin

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales which of his Ministers has been given responsibility for energy use by his Department; and what is his brief regarding energy efficiency.

Mr. Nicholas Bennett

As Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Wales, I have responsibilities which include the use of energy. The publication of the Welsh Office energy efficiency plan was announced on 8 May 1989 by the then Secretary of State for Wales, my right hon. Friend the Member for Worcester (Mr. Walker), and copies were placed in the Library of the House. The plan is currently being updated to reflect the increasing concern for energy efficiency exemplified by the recently instigated ministerial group on energy efficiency.
