Mr. Ronnie Campbell

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what information he has on the level of direct or indirect subsidy enjoyed by imported coal from: South Africa, the United States of America, Poland, Colombia, Australia and China.

Mr. Michael Spicer

The Government do not collect information about any subsidies which may be paid to overseas coal producers, as few coal-producing countries publish such information.
