Captain A. EVANS

asked the Secretary for Mines whether he can state the percentage of British coal exporting markets which are free of any restriction?

Captain CROOKSHANK

During the year 1934 the tonnage of coal exported to countries other than those with which Trade Agreements are in operation or those in which the importation or consumption of foreign fuel is regulated or restricted by State action, amounted to 8,628,570 tons, or 19.8 per cent. of total exports from this country.
