Household Coal and Smokeless Fuel

HC Deb 30 July 1964 vol 699 c381W

Mr. Stones

asked the Minister of Power what are the average prices of one cwt. of household coal and of one cwt. of solid smokeless fuel; and what are the relative thermal values if household coal is taken as 100.

Mr. Peyton

My right hon. Friend is not responsible for retail prices, but some estimates of the kind requested were given in Appendix III of the White Paper "Domestic Fuel Supplies and the Clean Air Policy" published in December, 1963.
