HC Deb 27 January 1949 vol 460 cc1091-2
28. Mr. Oliver

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power whether he has received the report of the committee set up to consider the law of support and the problems of damage caused by mining subsidence; and when may a statement on the subject be expected.

Mr. Gaitskell

I have just received the report, and have arranged for it to be published. The recommendations are far reaching, affect a number of Government Departments and other interests, and will, therefore, require careful consideration before any statement can be made.
