§ 80. Mr. ROWSONasked the Secretary for Mines if he is now in a position to state whether his efforts to bring about a meeting between the coalowners and the Miners' Federation have been attended with success?
§ The SECRETARY for MINES (Mr. Shinwell)Following a meeting with the Executive Committee of the Miners' Federation, I suggested that representatives of the Mining Association should meet representatives of the Miners' Federation to consider on a national basis the position which will arise on the expiration of the temporary agreements made in the districts for the application of Part III of the Coal Mines Act, 1930. I understood that such a meeting would be arranged, but I have not yet been informed of the date.
