§ 19. Captain CUNNINGHAM-REIDasked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the fact that coke is mostly sold by weight only, he will consider the introduction of legislation giving him powers to prescribe a maximum moisture content for coke offered for sale?
§ Mr. RUNCIMANThe wilful damping of coke is already an offence under some local Acts, but my hon. and gallant Friend's suggestion will be borne in mind when any convenient opportunity arises for amending the general law.
