HC Deb 23 November 1931 vol 260 cc54-5W
Mr. L. SMITH

asked the Secretary for Mines if he can make any statement as to the instructions given to the British Delegation attending the International Congress on Bituminous Coal, at Pittsburg, so far as the prospects of low-temperature carbonisation is concerned?

Mr. ISAAC FOOT

There is no official representation of this country at the Pittsburg Conference on Bituminous Coal. The rest of the question does not therefore arise.
