HC Deb 15 February 1944 vol 397 c17
34. Mr. Keeling

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power how the tonnage of coal produced, number of miners employed and total of wages paid in the first six months of 1943, compare with the figures for the first six months of 1942, immediately preceding the introduction of Government control.

Major Lloyd Georģe

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply I gave the hon. Member for Twickenham (Mr. Keeling) on 8th February last.

Mr. Keeling

As that answer contained a very large number of figures, will my right hon. and gallant Friend answer the Question on the Paper?

Major Lloyd Georģe

No, Sir, because it is exactly the same as the Question which my hon. Friend asked last week.
