HC Deb 11 December 1928 vol 223 c1894
36. Mr. G. HALL

asked the Secretary for Mines if he has any information regarding the position at Nixon's Collieries, Mountain Ash and Merthyr Vale; whether the liquidator has completed negotiations for the sale of these collieries; and whether there is the possibility of work being resumed at these collieries in near future?

Commodore KING

I have no information at present as to the future prospects of these collieries.

Mr. HALL

Will the hon. and gallant Member inquire as to what is likely to be the position in the course of the next few days?

Commodore KING

I have nothing to do with proceedings in bankruptcy and liquidation.
