HC Deb 04 February 1930 vol 234 c1715W
Mr. DICKSON

asked the Secretary for Mines whether a recent test has been made of the Turner coal plant at Coal-burn; and, if so, when the Report of the test will be available?

Mr. TURNER

A test of the Turner low-temperature carbonisation plant was made last year, and a report dealing with this test will be published within the next fortnight. There has been some delay in publishing the report owing to the fact that a second test was to be carried out, but so far a suitable opportunity for its completion has not occurred. The reason for the second test is referred to in the report.
