Mr. Skeet
asked the Secretary of State for Energy whether the advanced gascooled reactors to be located at Heysham and Torness are now to proceed or to be deferred due to a revision of electricity demand for the late 1980s.
Mr. Norman Lamont
As my right hon. Friend told the House on 13 March—[Vol. 980, c. 1552]—we are considering the capital programmes of the electricity supply industry, including the two AGR's, in the light of the latest forecasts of electricity demand. The House will be informed in due course of our conclusions.
