HC Deb 01 August 1944 vol 402 c1199W
Mr. Wootton-Davies

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power whether, in view of the demand for short wall coal cutting machines to improve production in British collieries, he will arrange to step up the manufacture in this country instead of waiting for supplies from U.S.A.

Major Lloyd George

Steps have already been taken to step up the manufacture of Shortwall coal cutting machines in this country.
