§ Mr. POTTSasked the Secretary for Mines whether his attention has been drawn to the coalowners' published statement that no profits were made in the coal-mining industry in any district for June last; and whether he can arrange the completion and circulation of the quarterly summary statement, 1st April to 30th June, 1925, having regard to the pending crisis?
§ Colonel LANE-FOXI have seen the statement referred to. The statistical summary for the June Quarter will be published as soon as possible after the receipt of the necessary figures from the Joint Accountants. I will do what I can to expedite it.
