§ Mr. SHINWELLasked the Secretary for Mines, whether he can now make a statement on the Government's intentions in the mining dispute?
§ Captain CROOKSHANKThis is a dispute between the two sides in the industry, and it is clearly desirable that a solution should be found by mutual agreement, if possible. In the hope of bringing this about, I have had meetings with both sides, and further meetings are imminent. In the circumstances, I feel sure that the hon. Member will not expect me to say more at the moment.
