HC Deb 05 November 1946 vol 428 cc1193-4
21. Mr. Baker White

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power the circumstances that led to the cancellation, at a late date and short notice, of the coal production rally fixed to be held at Sandwich, Kent, on Saturday, 26th October.

Mr. Shinwell

I understand that the meeting in question was one of those planned by the National Coal Board. This is a domestic affair of the Coal Board and does not concern my Department.
