HC Deb 15 November 1911 vol 31 cc361-2
Captain FABER

asked why the Lidgett colliery at Tankersley has been shut down; whether the collieries in the north-eastern area, commonly known as the Furness area, are being worked at a loss; and whether they are likely to shut down?

Mr. ROBERTSON

I have no other information than that published in the newspapers.
