§ 2. Mr. W. Hamiltonasked the Minister of Power when he now expects to publish the Report of the Wilson Committee inquiring into the potentialities of the by-products of coal.
§ Mr. WoodThe Chairman has told me that he hopes the Committee's Report will be completed in the very near future. I shall then arrange for its presentation to Parliament as soon as possible.
§ Mr. HamiltonIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that there is a great volume of opinion in the country which believes that the future of coal lies in its by-products rather than in its burning? In view of the urgency of the problem, will he do whatever he can to speed up the Report, which has been subject to considerable delay?
§ Mr. WoodI am looking forward very much to receiving the Report. I think I shall receive it very quickly, and I shall then publish it as soon as I possibly can so that Parliament can have the benefit of it.
