Ici Gas Purchase

Mr. Alan Lee Williams
asked the Secretary of State for Energy whether he will make a statement on the decision reached by the arbitrators regarding the price at which the British Gas Board sells gas to ICI Ltd.

Dr. J. Dickson Mabon
The decision of the arbitrator regarding the price at which the British Gas Corporation sells gas to ICI concerns contract terms between the two parties, and these are confidential. I am asking the Chairman of the Corporation to write to my hon. Friend.
